Why everybody blames the boomers now

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Here is a YouTube video about the hatred for the Boomers



Here are some viewer comments.

"Their parents fought for it. Their children paid for it."
How did the Boomer children pay for the 1960s and 70s prosperity?
That is illogical.

"My grandfather’s minimum wage factory job paid 4x the cost of their rent. I get paid twice minimum wage and my rent takes half of that."
How is that the fault of the Boomers?
How did they do that?
That's dumb.

"It genuinely boggles my mind how we have an entire generation of people that essentially made it their lifes work to ensure that those that come after them have it worse."
That is psycho hate.

"I love that Boomer Hate is the only thing that can unite multiple generations across the entire political spectrum."
That is Psycho hate

"I seriously cant wait until this generation stops existing."
How will that help you?

"I actually have trouble hiding my contempt for this generation"
What did the Boomers do to you?
That is dumb

Comment:
What do they think that the Boomers were supposed to do?
Were they supposed to not be prosperous?
Were they supposed to hope that the equity in there homes did not increase?
The Boomers did not have it as easy as they think.
I don't understand how they can think that the Boomers are purposely trying to harm later generations.
The Boomers just lived their lives like everyone else does.
BTW, are the later generations doing everything that they expected the Boomers to do? noooope

Being proud of getting yours at the expense of all the generations that will follow you is such a boomer mentality thing to feel

How did the Boomers prevent you from being successful?

How did the Boomers prevent you from being successful?

Shipped tens of thousands of good paying jobs overseas.

How did the Boomers prevent you from being successful?

They made it look easy but forgot to tell their children that it isn't as easy as it looks.

 

[Greenbeard]

What do they think that the Boomers were supposed to do?

Leave their children a better world than the one they inherited?

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

Shipped tens of thousands of good paying jobs overseas.

Wasn't that the result of the powers that be? Not individual "baby boomers"?

The argument is in general. I am from the end of the B.B. And I don't take offense at the complaints. I understand and agree.

It was the older generation that left all the mess ... toxic dumps, radioactive sludge, television ... the Boomers had nothing to do with any of that ...

The previous generation certainly played a role but so did the B.B.

Exactly! This generational hate stuff is ridiculous. We Boomers may have been beneficiaries of the times but there was no "plot" to insure that we got ours while sticking it to the younger generations.

Let me explain hate for the Boomers:

1. Boomers grew up in a conservative America where showing a bellybutton on TV was verboten, and hard work and accountability were the norm.
2. Then Progs took over, put a guy in the WH having coke parties on the East Lawn there with naked people running around raping the country of trillions until every subsequent generation will now forever be paying the debt for their excesses, where sponging off others with no accountability is now the norm.
3. Now that everything is falling apart for newer generations due to the rampant excesses of their democrat peers, they preach "blame the Boomers" now as yet another evasive tactic while Progs stuff their loot in their duffel and head for the back door.

Bottom line: Boomers is proof in the conservative America works.
Failure of Gen Z: proof that leftist progressivism doesn't.

A plan or not, it happened. The Jobs are gone.

Lots of jobs, some are gone. Do you hate AI?

I think it's overblown but really irrelevant to the jobs that were once here being gone.

You think the AI affect on jobs is overblown but you blame Boomers for shifts in the job market. Okay got it.

They genuinely believe they’re going to inherit my money.

No. That’s just an unproved irrational claim by you.

You lie.

How would you know? You've never been proud, and you've never gotten "yours."
