Yeah tail end Xer here. I was into punk postpunk and goth. Industrial and every genera that diverged from them. And while they were a product of gen X. You’re right that every generation had similar in recent history. And I remembered always being outside the mainstream for liking those genera. I remember people scoffing when punkers pointed out the fact that Reagan/Thatcher were fascist or at least proto fascist. But the punks were right.
There’s a reason young prepy Reaganite fash were a huge pop culture genx trope back then. Gen x has always largely been disengaged from politics outside of the Reaganite fash. Not saying that there weren’t others outside the fash. But they were very much outliers and exceptions. Millennials and gen Z generally dwarf Gen X on political activism and engagement.
