No other generations had enough influence or power until the last few years. Gen X was always massively outnumbered, and Millennials quite often sided with boomers with some sort of weird Stockholm syndrome. Now with Millennials seemingly cured of their Stockholm syndrome, Gen X still existing, and Gen Z being adults, there are finally enough people to out-vote the boomers.
