People from Generation X, Millennial and Generation Z are just way more rational...But it is not old people, it is boomers specifically, people older than them, from the silent Generation are not as emotional and angry as them

Just some folk stuck in their ways and wishing things would stay the same and/or angry that is millennials dont care about anything aside from avocado toast.

I dont blame them. Avocado toast is delicious.

Because they lived through the greatest period of economic expansion in US history built in the labor of illegals and cheap foreign made goods and now suddenly they want to get rid of those things when they were what allowed it.

It's because they're idiots that like to blame everything on the future generations, when they set up the downfall of the U.S. economy by voting in one of the worst presidents(Reagan) not once, but twice.

Why not just say Generation X, Y, & Z instead of changing in the middle?

Avocado toast is gross... But maybe that's because I hate avocados...

I also find avocado to be gross, but I've only had it raw and don't like guac...

Can avocado be pickled? (I mean, semantically yes it can... I mean is it good)

i would think avocado can't be pickled, it's too soft and I don't think the juice could permeate the shell

They got to enjoy the biggest economic boom in the country's history due mostly to all the competitors being smoking craters after WWII, then when that stopped panning out, had the good times kept alive by massive debt spending they'd never have to worry about paying back themselves.
In a period of near constant growth and bountiful employment, instead of socking away all those earnings to cover for the future, boomers and their politicians spent spent spent.
They wrecked the environment, supported military operations across the world that sprouted an endless wave of enemies to sap our military and threaten us with terror, and just in general did their best to make things as terrible as possible for future generations.
Now they're being called out on it, and it's pissing them off. You really expect the most selfish generation to become introspective and reflect on their own failings? Ha! No one should be shocked that they'd rather nonsensically blame millennials for problems that were created before the millennials themselves were even born, rather than admit any sort of fault!

It was the Boomers who overwhelmingly voted for Trump, in fact.

Millennials overwhelmingly voted for literally anyone else. (The last election sucked for the young voters in general; Hillary was barely more popular w/ them than Trump)

but why it happens only whit boomers and not people older than them like the silent generation?

It's always people 52 to 70 the ones who are angry an entitled, people 70+ are not like them so it is not related to being old

I see angry Gen Xers all the time... Silent gen too

Even if you accept that the Boomers are the worst gen, its really not by the ridiculous margin that this board likes to think
