There is something I want to say—but first…

I want to make it clear that it’s not directed at any one person. I’m not singling anyone out—"boomer bashing" has pretty much become the national pastime. So this is not meant to cause offense.

But I’ve always had an issue about giving people a bad time around things that they have absolutely no control over, for example:

Their race, ethnicity or country of origin.
Their physical abilities or disabilities.
Their size or shape.
Their sex or gender.
Their sexual orientation.

And, the number of birthdays they have had.

The last seems to be the one area where it’s still open season, and frankly, it kinda sucks.

Nobody’s getting any younger, and there are both good and bad things that every generation can claim, when the final ledger’s written.

Just saying. 🥺

It is.
It started in retaliation to the older generations having extremely conservative views, and blaming millennials and Gen Z lazy for inheriting a broken economy.

But it's not right, because you can't make a sweeping generations about large grouops of people. And not all "boomers" hold such attitudes.
@basilfawlty89 Indeed. You know how old I was when the first GenX’ers were born ? 5. ☺
