Gen X here…. After arguing and having many disagreements with many many boomers over the years, we are not the same. While I have had similar disagreements with younger generations they are fundamentally different because we are old enough to see the mistakes the boomers made but young enough to see the world is very much different and that rampant capitalism and greed is often the blame. Case in point, student loans. I am all for all education should be free and things like crippling student debt should not be a thing. Every boomer I have talked to still thinks either education should be a privilege or that you should be able to put yourself through college and get a masters working at McDonalds or Walmart.
Some of us Gen Xers ended up more Boomer-like, and some ended up more Millennial-like.
It’s almost as though huge masses of people can’t just be simplified into lettered groups like some kind of social media horoscope.
That doesn't make sense my magic 8 ball told me so!
My wife is slightly older (still Gen X but barely) and she definitely has more boomer qualities than me.
My girlfriend is solid Gen X and I’m Xennial on the Gen X side. We are both decent folks.
