Wow, way to stigmatize an entire generation and basically accuse boomers of ruining everything for future generations. Not only is this grossly unfair, it also puts all of us in a one sided political bucket..

Yeah, must be tough to hear your entire generation stigmatized for the behavior of a small %. I wouldn’t know! Signed, A Millennial

Been going on for centuries. Maybe everyone should stop generalizing. It accomplishes very little.

Interesting how effective Russian divide & conquer efforts are. The younglings forget how the boomers (50% or so) were protesting against the draft & Viet Nam war, supporting civil rights for minorities (POC's, LGBT's, Women), the environment. I'm to the point of throwing batteries into the trash.

If I had a Trumper offspring, he'd be written out of the will in favor of saving the endangered three legged frog or something. Fellow/sister boomers, take note of your offsprings' politics and rewrite your wills accordingly.

Yeah but then they decided that what they fought for was far enough and any other civil advance was too much.

You're wrong. We're in the fight. You just don't see us because anyone over 40 is invisible to you because you are blinded by Russian divide and conquer tactics. But hey, I'll throw a few more lithium batteries in the landfill headed trash in your name and for your children's benefit. Why bother?

Don’t take it so personally. I didn’t launch into a ‘not all men’ tirade when women chose the bear.

Those they voted for since, have negated a ton of those civil/human rights & environmental gains. 🙁 I’m GenX - its hard to acknowledge a majority of my generation voted Trump (twice). But I’m not about to absolve my generation of the consequences of it simply because *I* didn’t vote that way.

Let's just be real. A majority of WHITE PEOPLE, especially WHITE MEN of all ages voted for this. Stop blaming boomers. And, by the way, look at photos. We oldsters are still out there. But to anyone under 50, we're invisible. It's a YOU problem.

Invisible? Try being Genx, lol! Boomers have been calling the political shots for years, hardly invisible. My parents are both boomers, smh. But yes, speak extra condescendingly in response when someone *respectfully* pushes back on something you say. That’ll help. 😏

Your generation is also called the ME Generation aka I got mine and screw the rest of us. If I can accept the problems that My Gen X generation has foisted on this work, so can you.

What? I’m to accept something that had nothing to do with me personally? Simply because of the timeline I was born in? No exceptions. Labels are stupid no matter what generation. GTFOH…

You aren't your generation, nor am I, but I can admit GenX is more filled with nasty reactionaries even though I am not one. Let me guess, you also think the vast majority of the US thought the Kent State shootings were a bad thing in 1970?
