Generation-Z appreciates everything before their time more than we millennials or boomers appreciated the groups before theirs.

Generation-Z is much more all inclusive. If you are kind, compassionate, show love to others, you are a very important individual,
if you are autistic LGBTQ, multicultural, ADHD, you are in the included circle just by sharing a commonality,
just by setting the trend that they have a special value to you they reciprocate more than any past generation.

Generation-Z are of course not generalizable as they are diverse and all shades of personality, but the Gen-Z that I got the honor to see when they were baby second cousins of mine, and wondered in like 2003 what they would be in 2021, I’m really really happy with them, I want any Gen-Z reading this to also know you can be anything, I will help you be anything that I can contribute to, and you’re all the best sweetest generation ever.
OP, you apparently don't realize, that you're describing the hippie contingent of the Boomers, and probably some non-hippie Boomers too, when they were the same age as Gen Z. Gen Z isn't old enough yet to lose their childlike wonder, appreciation, altruism and egalitarianism. Give them another 15 years, and some of them will turn cynical, or critical of others, as life wears them down. You sound like a hippie wannabe, yourself. If you could time travel back to those days, and hang out in San Francisco or NYC, you'd be enchanted with that contingent of Boomers.

What it is you're admiring is innocence. Most humans go through a phase of that.

I couldn't rep you. But you posted my thoughts, exactly.
