All I hear about is “boomers” this, “Millennials” that, “Gen Z” that, etc.

Why no one talk about Gen X? What happened to them? They just vanished like in Infinity War? Or are we mistaken Gen Z by Boomers?

    Who’s making it worse? Was it the boomers who skyrocketed the price of everything, deadlocked the political system in the country so no change to the status quo could be made, or is it the youth who are misguided by those who should be their protectors?

    I think you’ll find less misogyny, body shaming, and entitlement among the youth either way.

      Boomers are a minority of voters. They caused problems but now everyone else is to blame for continuing them and making them worse.

      As to misogyny, the world is on a clear backwards slide. Nor did boomers invent body shaming because they were the ones that normalized morbid obesity. The generation before boomers were not as fat.
