Boomer Hate Thread

I won't say I actively hate boomers because I don't give enough of a shit about any social group enough to love/hate them, but I think some older people are really annoying when they want. Especially when they want to do things their own way and we have to explain to them that it's 2020, things aren't as it were during the 60/70s, that they need to chill and learn and get on with the times.
Some boomers are thick headed as shit and just annoying to deal with.

That's what some annoying little kid would say. Just shut up, child. Get off my lawn! You kids are just fucking dumb. When you say "it's 2020" like you're saying something real, what you really just said is "reeee reee I am a dumb little kid and I know nothing because you are older and wiser" and I definitely agree with that. You are worse than @Y2K Baby. Plus you're fat.

Also I'm really sincere about the get off my lawn part. Where did you get the idea you could just hang around on my lawn?

That's my main gripes with them.

Mind you, I think the government boomers deserve the shit. Some of them are really incompetent.

Hi, @AnOminous

Reactions: drain
The main reason boomers attract so much hate is because they were a generation which possessed unprecedented potential to create a better world, only to then waste it by becoming everything they once rebelled against.

The major sell-out moment, as I understand it, happened in the 80s, when the boomers reached a level of influence and upward mobility in society which granted them the option to cynically abandon the hopes and dreams of the 60s, and transform into the vulturous yuppies which defined the 80s: an opportunity which most of them grabbed with both hands, and which would ultimately result in the creation of the neoliberal economic paradigm that we now find ourselves in.

It's honestly sad to see how a generation can regress like this. The boomers were the generation which gave us counter-culture, the civil rights movement, the anti-war movement, mass demonstrations, and arguably the best popular music of any generation before or since. They were the generation which practically invented cool, and to think that they have now been reduced to a generation of impotent reactionaries who spend their days working to prevent any positive change is as maddening as it is pitiful.
 
Neo-Conservative boomers are the primary roadblock to an actual European-style far-right party in the US. They are pawns of international businessmen, which are the unelected autocrats that control our society.

The international corporation is the most dangerous creation to the continued existence of unique cultures, nation states, and societies, yet NeoCons suck their cock like it will shoot honey at them. They should all get the wall.
 
I know several boomers donating their entire retirement checks to their churches and I'm not sure who to be more annoyed at. Boomers for being idiots, or churches for preying on them.
A fool and their money are soon parted.

It cost money to save your soul. Into their saving accounts.

Religion has always preyed on idiocy. Hell, religion promotes and encourages idiocy.
You can't direct this hatred on the boomers.
You would need to time travel back to Grug and the Order of the Smooth Rock.
