I've traveled pretty far and wide in my life time from Europe to Mid East to Canada and SE Asia. One thing that I have noticed is that boomers here in NA are the most selfish group of people I have ever met in my entire life.
They have lived the golden life no generation in the history of mankind lived and they don't wanna let go. My wife's boomer parents are the definition of it. They live in Canada.
Scared of their own shadows. If you put a gun to these peoples head and asked for an original thought on government they would repeat what CBC (their version of CNN) told them to repeat.
They live in large homes they bought for peanuts because every dollar was worth 10x what it is now and for medical coverage they will destroy 10 generations after them. They don't give two shits about what any government does AS LONG AS their 50 prescription meds are covered and they get a check. That's it.
Most of them have children and grandchildren in debt up their nose but it doesn't matter.
They will continue to stand in voting lines far more than any other demographic and vote for any faggot rat that maintains their homes (purchased for under 200k) prices moving up in an unsustainable manner.
Collapse? "Doesn't matter. I'll be dead anyway."
The worst ones in this group are the federal employees who are retired. IMO, you couldn't find a larger group of assholes in this country.
They are glued to MSM 24 hours a day. It's sickening.
EDIT: Normie boomers is what I am referring to here.
Not all “boomers” are like that. I am a 72 year old boomer and I NEVER listen to the news! I prefer my own way of finding out the truth such as this site as well as LOCALS and Truth Social and I believe my type are the majority of the boomer generation. Don’t despair…..I have an older sister who is one like you described. I keep trying to red pill her on Facebook with pictures of the glorious memes I find which is the ONLY thing I “use” FB for. Keep the faith!
I didn't write it was all boomers. It's a general demographic and I didn't write anything factually wrong. Boomers are one of the major issues in conservative and liberal politics. Enjoyed capitalism but now in their old age want socialism to provide for them no matter the cost.
Unlike millennial's? We pay far more taxes than you ever did while the cost of living is multiple times higher. In fact, our existence is taxes lmao. Working multiple jobs while owning nothing is the hall mark of millennials.
What do you mean it's not their fault? We blame leftists for voting in corrupt governments and normies for allowing the shit to happen but boomers are not to blame for anything? This some sort of joke? lmao
Who do you think keeps the worms in the Republican party alive? 30 year olds? lol.
Also, the point of the post wasn't to blame all boomers. But the normie boomers and I'm baffled that people have no idea who I am talking about.
My social security check is MY money that was taken out of MY paychecks for many years. Same with Medicare which is a joke because I pay $238 a month for part B PLUS another $99 a month for a supplement insurance to help pay for what Medicare doesn’t! A lot of younger folks don’t realize this. I also have to pay income tax on my Fixed income. Getting old is NOT secure and nothing is FREE!!
At least you got what a boomer is (age wise) correct. To be a boomer you must have been born right after WWII ended, my parents where boomers.
But I hear boomer thrown around in here like anyone born before Y2K is a boomer and it makes me want to slap them for their complete lack of historical knowledge.
Am already old as shit I don't need to be lumped into my parent's generation I'm a genXer. But when I complain they say, it's just a saying. Fuck you, lame asses, so is some screwed up chick who decides to identify as a man and then has a baby so now men can give birth. It's just a saying. No it fucking isn't, men are men, woman are women, Gen Xers are Xers and boomers are boomers!
End rant.
He’s right for most of us.
