Oh yeah, it definitely is. A lot of it is because a lot of weirdos like pumpkin spice, too. It got labeled as a "basic" thing as though being boring and enjoying simple pleasures isn't what's available to most people living in poverty, which when 60% of the US lives paycheck to paycheck... is the majority of people. Most people are boring because it's what we have access to and time for, and a lot of folks are done being vilified for it as though your choice in coffee speaks to some larger issue about you. It doesn't.
It's really in many ways an unintentionally classist dig on people who like sweets or just simple things.
