While I’m sure there are plenty of boomers with shitty opinions, it’s the same situation for millennials. Who do we think is bolstering crypto and Fintech?
Keep in mind we’re fighting a class war, not a generational war.
Most of the people I’ve met IRL who are boosting fintech and crypto are actually Gen-Xers
I’ve known like two Millennials who were enticed into it – by Gen-Xers, incidentally – and both got right the fuck out
Anyways, there are absolutely generational dynamics in class politics, although you’re right, the main thing going on is class stuff. For the most part, Boomers are just privileged workers who benefited from a social contract that expired a generation ago and are insulated from the struggles younger workers face, yes.
On the other hand, crypto could be considered a gripping response to a suboptimal system that wasn’t getting any better…
On the other other hand, very few individuals would have had any influence whatsoever for that happening, and even fewer could be considered even close to directly responsible… so to say that “it’s because of ____ generation” is expressly ageist and unfair

It’s class politics, and it’s generational.
Fair enough.

True.
