Do people really not remember that it was also boomers protesting vietnam and working in the civil rights movement? Or that plenty of people born after that voted for trump, and will again?
Three intergenerational fake fight is dumb, and it prevents any real attempt at unification to fight against a real enemy: fascism.
a global generation that won't be storming any beaches or cities would be a blessing for the world
imagine a generation in russia that just keeps doing what they do instead of listening to an old psychopath in Moscow who decides that it would be "good" to send hundreds of thousands to their deaths to bring death and destruction to millions of others
This A+ civics genius over here seems to be forgetting all the millennials that went to Iraq and Afghanistan, and when we (the US government) inevitably set up another meat grinder overseas, then there will be a bunch of “today’s youth” getting killed over there just like she wants. Christ.
Ironically, Vietnam was Baby Boomers' avocado toast. Their parents were happy to keep shipping their children off to die so that politicians wouldn't look weak in front of the public. Remember that students were murdered at Kent State over daring to exercise their First Amendment rights.
Somehow those people STILL, as a generation, became gigantic shitbags who destroyed the world for their own personal gratification.
Judging by US politics nowadays and their behaviour in regards to both Israel's genocide in Gaza and Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the average boomer would've sided with the Nazis.
The military industrial complex won. People suspect it's why JFK was assassinated. He was ready to go public with the conspiracy. Nowadays we just accept that the military industrial complex runs shit lol
Today’s youth are fighting in Ukraine just fine. She probably thinks it’s character forming, having never once done anything remotely like that herself.
Could of named Desert Storm? Or is that Gen X? Ether way older folks have been labeling the next generation as inept since the beginning of time but were still here long after they die.
Blaming societal woes on the boomers (or any generational group) is boring. Yes, it's cute when old people can't do basic things, but if you let your attention be drawn away from the super rich, you got played like a fiddle.
