Chronological Snobbery
A term first coined by C. S. Lewis, whereby one generation believes that they are better than the previous one, or any prior generation, simply due to the passage of time.
It's a great term, and applicable all the time.

What I marvel at is that at some point in history, however many years ago (100,000?), suddenly there existed somebody, one person, who was as self-aware and intelligent as you or I today. What a moment.

And what a snob to think that people before that moment were less 😆
