Not even just Republicans, unfortunately. The generation of Americans who grew up in the Cold War were inundated with propaganda about how socialism would destroy America, and then go and say things like this https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/26/us/politics/moderate-demo...
replyYeah. The boomers are a real problem.
replyYou say the boomers are a problem simply because they are old and the young hate the old (ageism), and because they have money and you want it, now.
replyBoomers created everything you like about this world, including youth culture itself, "don't trust anybody over 30".
Their predecessor generations, their parents and grandparents, believed comprehensively in things you despise.
I know this because I hated the boomers when they were young, and you all sound just like them.
They are a deeply selfish and immoral generation on the whole who make excuses for evil and denigrate anyone tryin to do good. Just looking at their voting patterns makes it quite clear.
replySuch a lame attempt to defend them by you lol--what makes you think money has anything to do with it? That's Boomer logic; IME, Boomers and right-wingers believe everyone is as self-centered as they are.
the conceit of leftists is that they are godd and pure... but they never are and it NEVER works out, just makes them insufferaby sanctimonious along the way. I was raised completely leftist btw, by good people, but I saw the craven insides of all their friends.
replyI didn't say the boomers weren't the way you describe, I said you're just like them, lofty ideals, all too human boundaries and self control.
