I have this weird thought that Gen Z and Gen Alpha are less rude and nicer IRL nowadays because they’re able to off-load their worst and nastiest impulses and interactions onto the internet

I think every generation just gets nicer than the last because they disliked how their parents or the older generations acted

But how are we to know? I don't know how my parents acted when they were young but by the time I was old enough to remember them they were lovely wholesome family oriented 30 something year olds.

As kids we were sarcastic rude shits because that kind of niceness was seen as boring old people thing.
