Why does Gen Z not use punctuation?

Gen Z often skips punctuation, especially the period, in texts because they grew up with instant, informal digital communication where sentences are sent individually, making periods feel overly formal, cold, aggressive, or final, while platforms like TikTok and Snapchat prioritize speed and emotion conveyed through emojis or multiple exclamation points, not strict grammar. They see a period as carrying a heavy emotional weight, signaling anger or seriousness, whereas in casual texting, the thought is complete without it, making it seem unnecessary or even hostile.
