Starting to see a disturbing trend of some pitting generations against...

[brush]

each other, of Boomers being the villains behind all the ills of society is so uninformed. There was a thread earlier posing this question.

Are the Rich White Boomers Taking of Millennial Wealth, or is something else happening?

Please people, there is and always was a dichotomy among boomers all the way back to the 60s. Half were the protestors who bought down Nixon, marched and fought and some died against racists in the streets and on freedom rides in the south, and stopped the Vietnam war; and the other half were the repug crooks who were with Nixon, bashed protestor heads in Chicago and later supported Reagan and Bush l and W Bush (and btw, where have all the protestors gone in the GenXer and Millennial generations? They sure haven't been in the streets. Keyboard warring doesn't count as attested to by trump being in the WH).

Learn some history. And btw, half of GenXers and Millennials are repugs too. Ya better learn to deal with it. Who do you thing was fooled into voting for trump? It sure wasn't all Boomer repugs. There aren't enough of them to add up to 62M votes for trump.

1. Softball compared to the Boomer/WW2 disputes

5. True, but the time is too critical now with trump in the WH.

There was a report yesterday that trump and Putin talk everyday.

WTF are they talking about but controlling the world—and you just know it's really about Putin controlling the world as he manipulates trump into thinking he's an equal partner.

I said all that to say it's too critical a time in the 2018 election cycle for a generations wedge issue to be introduced, by some alledgedly on our side, as we try to take back at least the House so we can neutralize trump.

2. This is as old as time

The yonugsters always think they know better and old farts like me have the hard knocks behind them to know better. Both age groups have their good and bad.

3. We said the same things....

about our parents, except they really were to blame for all of our country's ills!

Don't get too uptight about it. It's the torch being passed to a new generation. Now it's their turn to fuck things up beyond belief. No generation can completely eradicate the sins of their fathers and their own at the same time.

4. You're right. It just pisses me off that blame is being placed on Boomers as a whole...

instead of on the repug/traitor crooks who've installed trump in the WH, as if there are no repug Millennials or GenXers.

6. Its the 1%. Age has nothing to do with it.

Its corporations and the oligarchy/wannabe oligarchy. That's who fucked America up. The MIC especially...then the bankers.

8. Exactly. And some are failing to see that and falling for a wedge...

issue in blaming Boomers and not the real crooks whose actions eventually helped install trump.

And btw, trump maybe their and our Frankenstein as he's apparently in cahoots with Putin—and we know who's in control in that alliance.

7. Just say #notallboomers and be done with it.
