Who ruined the job market so both gen x parents had to work and then raised the gen z grandkids to be just like them. Shit apple doesn't roll far from the shit tree.

I'm really tired of this narrative. If you look at the prior two elections, boomers only voted conservative by a slight majority, and younger people only voted liberal by a slight majority. The difference isn't stark. I'm a boomer, and me and my boomer friends are flaming liberals.

There is evidence already coming in that Trump did very well this time with younger people. Stop putting all the blame on boomers.

Sure buddy you and your friends are cool. Lol I totally believe you. Greedy pigs are selfish, on the left or the right. Tell me again how many decades have boomers been voting, and running the country into the ground?

I’m seeing an uptick in accounts pushing anger and resentment at groups of people based on immutable attributes.

This is one of them.

So you're so smart, and you're making these allegations - you tell me how boomers have voted differently than the prior and subsequent generations.

I know what neoliberalism is, but where does it suggest it applies to the majority of boomers?
