If millennials didn't already have it hard enough having to live through multiple historical events, we also now have to take crap from Gen Z on social media about our beloved childhood heroes. First up on the chopping block, apparently, is the ever-inspirational Bill Nye the Science Guy. A Gen Z posted a video on their TikTok saying that Bill Nye was the "biggest fraud" of our time. And that he is "just" and engineer, not a scientist. 

Those are some fighting words there, buddy. That video is flooded with comments and other stitched videos coming after this content creator. First of all, how dare he. Second of all, isn't the E in STEM, the umbrella term used to group together the distinct but related technical disciplines, for Engineering?! And third of all, this brilliant man decorated with genius achievements never claimed he was a scientist, he said he was a science guy. 

Anyways, if you think millennials are going to sit around and let their beloved science guy get slander, you've got another thing coming. It doesn't even matter that it happened on a Gen Z app—the millennials have come for him.
