It's all fucking stupidity.

Like every fucking baby boomer is some megalomaniacal racist, and nobody born after 1999 is.

The whole thing is just shitty thinking. It was fucking boomers that were essential to every damn stage of the civil rights movement. It was fucking boomers that fought against Reagan's policies and the changes congress made. And , yes,, it was also boomers doing the shitty stuff.

Gen x is no better or worse. Nor are millennials, gen z, or whatever the next couple will be. There's fucking idiots in every generation. There's assholes in every generation.

Trying to pretend actual baby boomers are the source of all evil is fucking dumb and the people that do it are their generation's crop of idiots. The ones that use boomer to mean anyone older than they are are even bigger idiots.

Yeah, like when every fucking person born in the forties and fifties is dead, there's going to be a wave of magic that turns everyone born after that into some paragon of virtue and genius. Makes total fucking sense.

Fuck, the same idiots bitching about boomers often voted for fucking Sanders. There's even some of those idiots that were riding Musk's jock until he "switched teams".

It's fucking absurd how truly dumb humans are.
