Boomers cerrtainly have a responsibility in the sad state of affairs
But are they guilty? If they are guilty, it's guilty of having been scammed, guilty of having been naive, and eventually, guilty of doing nothing even when now they know, mostly because they are stuck btw, they depend on their pension to survive and the pension funds perssure is choking younger generations
That being said, it is evident to me that, we're getting pitted against each others at every fucking level. Races vs races, religions vs religions, cultures vs cultures, classes vs classes, lefts vs rights and now generations vs generations
At every fucking level within the nation, and beyond
Needless to mention nations vs nations
...
I'm not going to jump on the blame boomers bandwaggon, for that reason alone
And the alternative consisting of doing nothing and "calling it a day because it's fucking hopeless and done anyway", isn't one
Something has to give, that's for sure
Yes, agreed. I think the young folks are annoyed by what they see as 'Boomer arrogance'.
Boomers I know are good folks who get on very well with thier Millenial kids and spend a lot of time with thier Grandkids etc. I have no bad personal experience of Boomers other than them repeating thier old stories every time we meet.
Exploiting a generational rift within cultures by blowing this up in the media wouldnt come as a surprise.
