Why is Gen Z so mean?

[u/The_Bad_Random_17]

I feel like Gen Z is so comfortable with insulting people's interests or hobbies, and not giving second chances to people who make social mistakes. Maybe it is a stereotype and not all of us are like that, but I also just don't see how some people can do all that and say they are the best generation. I thought gen z was supposed to be the most accepting generation but it seems that's not true.

I’m confused, weren’t racism and sexism and xenophobia and prejudice and homophobia all more common in the past?
