(Not all of us, please. I’m 18 - and I love to read - and that’s how I’m even a media and middleware loving nerdy programmer, and that’s how I’m here!!! I’m not even from a developed nation…)

No, not all of you! Or any other group, for that matter. Although I could certainly be wrong, I don’t think the comment is a blanket statement regarding the whole of the two generations, but rather just the portion of the demographic specifically mentioned, which certainly does exist.
Many people older than those two specific generations don’t fit into the “younger generations dumb!” trope that gets highlighted by another commonly referenced subset, so I’d suggest not using that group as a measurement for all older generations. I hope that makes sense.
Ignorant people have a tendency to be loud to compensate for their ignorance, and shouldn’t be used to define those with more nuance.
