I think it's just reinforcing endless consumption as normal/good and blaming the youngest adult generation for whatever problems are happening.
At the very last it's an attempt to invalidate the experience if people who are struggling. But yeah. It makes sense they could just be contributing to the propaganda stream. It seems to work pretty well on the stereotypical "middle class boomer", though that's anecdotal from my conversations with brick walls.
