For all you Millennials and Zoomers.

29. Exactly my point.

I don't think you can blame these younger generations for blaming Baby Boomers given that the transition from a system that tended to support a broad spectrum of society to our current "F*ck you I got mine" society took place when the cohort born from '46 to '56 was between 25 and 35, when all the advertising was directed at them. The Zoomers and Millenials seem to want to lump everyone born between '46 and '70 into the same grouping. There are some profound differences, and the definitions have changed now that it's convenient to blame that broader group. Earlier in the thread there was a pretty clear allusion to Woodstock, as somehow defining "Baby Boomer," but how many people in the new demonized definition were under 13 and in some cases not even born.

My complaint against that Zoomers and Millenials would be that they're succumbing to the same divide and concur propaganda that brought about this decline in US civilization. There are people who will pit the young against the older, and most people, young and old will lose in that exchange. Contemporary conservatives are experts at arguing both sides, provided they benefit.
