I was born in '62. growing up and living in the USA, I can tell you the boomers are pretty much split between liberal whackos and conservatives. the problem is party politics and the media. remember, those in power want us divided. does it matter if it is divided by race, class, sex or age? in 40 years, GenX, gen z and all these younger generational groups will be facing similar resentment as is directed at boomers atm, so maybe people should be focusing on more positive things then demonizing a particular age group.

My experience of way too many of them is that they mostly spend their lives being way too idealistic, they tried to make things work the way they thought they should work, and voted for people who sold them daydreams instead of trying to find out what actually would work and then trying to get people who also did that into power.

isn't that exact thing what is happening now? are not these younger folks making those same mistakes?
