I think culture is a pretty useful grouping for assessing a lot of traits and behaviours. Sure, it depends on the culture and the trait you are assessing, but as groupings go there are entire academic fields devoted to the study of how those things work.
Similarly with economic factors and class. These can be useful in describing proportions of a population. And how they react relative, again, providing the trait we are assessing is relative to that factor.
I know you are probably just being glib, and you are right that and generalisation can be pretty useless. But I still think the exceedingly broad “generation” is the most useless.
Hey, it’s no worse of a grouping than any of the categories you mentioned.
Fuck the generational war. The class war is real and it’s one sided, it’s basically a class genocide.
I disagree.
It’s a question of granularity and correlation.
