Comedian Hilariously Goes Off On Gen Z For Constantly Picking On Millennials—And She's Got A Point

Comedian Hilariously Goes Off On Gen Z For Constantly Picking On Millennials—And She's Got A Point
@ilizas/TikTok

Comedian Iliza Shlesinger went off on Gen Z in a rant during a recent show for always mocking and criticizing Millennials, reminding them to 'never forget that we walked on Instagram so you could run on TikTok.'

Inter-generational conflict has been a staple of comedy bits for millennia. Millennials may have finally found their voice in comedian Iliza Shlesinger, 40.

In a clip from a live set that went viral on TikTok, Shlesinger expressed frustration over Gen Zers using the comments section on TikTok videos and elsewhere to relentlessly mock Millennials.


She wondered, hilariously, why Gen Zers don't see that their TikTok dances came from years of Millennials posting coffee pictures to Instagram.

Shlesinger encouraged the generations to stop bickering and to team up, instead. Both are struggling in a difficult world. And, she pointed out, the only reason the two generations are even fighting at all is because they are the only ones in the TikTok comments anyway, bar a few lurking Gen X-ers.

Really, what Millennials want is some sleep, not inter-generational cultural warfare.

Accused of avocado greed from one side and of "cheugy" behavior from the other? Brilliant.

There's clearly a reason this comedy bit went viral.

MTG Just Went On CNN To Torch The Republican Party Over The Shutdown—And What Timeline Is This?

Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Green criticized her own party during a CNN appearance, saying that the GOP's shutdown strategy isn't working as they continue to argue with Democrats over wages, bills, and healthcare.

Greene stressed that she doesn't believe the shutdown—which just hit the one-month mark—"is going to help Republicans in the midterms" as much as Republicans continue to pin the blame on Democrats despite refusing to negotiate on Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies and other matters.
