A New Generation Is Here. Its Name Is Already an Insult.

Parents of the newly minted Beta babies are navigating an awkward association; brushing off a ‘placeholder’ name

Most generations get a reputation once they can talk and walk about in the world. The newest cohort already has a bad rap, and they haven’t even started eating solids.

Generation Beta officially arrived on Jan. 1, successors to Gen Alpha. While the name follows the conventions of the Greek alphabet, its connotation is less scholarly and more sus for some young parents and every school-age child. Beta is commonly used as slang for weak and passive.

Wildly unfortunate for that generation be not only be named betas but also follow Generation Alpha, which sounds badass. Unless some world event happens that Generation Beta can be named after, maybe WW3.

The Alpha will be the Boss and Betas will be their slaves.🙃
