For most of human’s history, the world was largely the same between generations. There were big shifts, but they were much more gradual (the industrial revolution took place over the course of generations, for example). I’m not quite sure when that changed, but it was probably at some point after WW2 (WW2 was a drastic change itself, of course, but probably more accurate to call it a one-off event during that time period)
The world is changing so much more today, so it’s even more applicable now than before
Isn’t this true for every generation?
Not really, it’s quite a modern phenomenon
