My boomer dad listens, understands, and helps. So when he gets a windfall, it isn't bled out to jews and niggers, it ends up helping me and my family. This notwithstanding, we're still pretty damn poor.
But okay, it's the boomers' fault they bought a house before the dotcom shit in the 90s. That's why your life is shit. mmhmm, here's a tissue, nigger.
@RoBu In 10-20 years, gen alpha and gen z are going to hate you because you didn't stop Bush from stealing the 2000 election and Trump from bombing Iran and the massive inflation that made everything too expensive and the third wave feminism plague that ruined dating and everything else that happened while we were of voting age. Having the poor hate each other instead of their real enemies is sadly very easy to do. Muh boomer blaming is starting to lose its panache imho - seems weak and stupid
@RoBu There are legit reasons to hate everyone. Just wish more teary eyed wiseasses on fedi could pinpoint goyim division ploys and at least get themselves to sob about the real enemy
@RoBu "Been wronged by X who are unwittingly part of the problem?"
That's what I see. A ton of gen x, boomers, millennials, and younger wrong good people and are "unwittingly part of the problem" because they're brainwashed somnambulists who may or not be able to realize what's going on and change course. Too much whining about boomers because they were born when they were and bought things and acted with rational self interest makes jack a dull boy.
I know that I've been online longer than anyone else here, but Boomer horror stories have been an established genre of online account since ARPANET for a reason.
@RoBu Maybe we just have more data for the boomers. My wealthy gen X brother in law is letting his son flounder in poverty a few states away and is doing the same bootstraps bullshit to him that the boomers of lore have supposedly done. I just think boomers are probably normal people and gen X had less kids and millennials had even less kids than gen X but a lot of gen X and millennials are terrible parents. Again, I just think the evil boomer meme is unhelpful goyim division slop.
I'm not going to paraphrase how our personal experiences are more representative of exceptions than rules ad infinitum.
Even the legitimate arguments lack exclusivity. Yes, a marginal majority of Boomers are callous, obtuse, frivolous, and avaricious beyond belief, but those traits and the resultant disherison, ossification, cHrIsTiAn zIoNiZm, and housing bubble are shared by most early Xers.
