In the past two days I've had my boomer neighbor tell me all latinx people need to be rounded up and shot. Then I had my boomer dad tell me that humans are disgusting and that Hitler was right - (hexbear.net)

in putting "useless eaters" in camps and killing them.

Add on top of that a heatwave that won't break until next week and all the general news about Biden and Trump has made me kind of existential dread modeing. What the fuck do we do?

My boomer dad has passively nudged me into being his retirement plan. Constantly bemoans the past being better, and blames "kids these days" on things like climate change and inflation (at least he believes in climate change)- ya know, despite the fact that boomers are still in control, I tell him they're in positions of power and he gets upset that I've "insulted his generation who are legitimate people and they'll never be another generation as good".

shrug-outta-hecks idk I'm tired and dunno wtf to do either

Back when I used to talk with my dad he would get so angry if I called him a boomer (even though that’s what he is). My kids and I call each other boomers whenever we have the slightest problem with technology.

Class matters more but most boomers are bourgeois and vice-versa. At the same time, republicans blame immigrants for the USA’s problems while liberals blame boomers.
