Which 4 specifically? The Pandemic is the obvious one. Russia-Ukraine + Israel-Hamas conflicts? Climate Change?
9/11, 2008 financial crisis, covid and now the Ukraine war and the inflation it has caused (and/or Brexit for those of us in the UK) would be my picks.
Climate change. Definitely climate change as there fourth. Unless you want to count it as the fifth, i guess.
Unless it goes in its own special category.
I wouldn't put climate change as one of them. Having it be a specific point makes it seem like Climate change had a definitive start or end point. It's just kinda floating in the background.
Depending on which end of millennials you are really impacts things as well. I would say events going from 1990 onward would count for older millennials, but you millennials might not count anything before 2005.
It's kinda always been there, just that the urgency has really ramped up in recent years. It went from scientists saying this is coming to the general populace screaming IT'S TOO LATE WE'RE FUCKED.
Oh yeah, I was somehow thinking GenZ and totally missed those. Makes sense for Millenials.
