Poll of the Day > Has the boomer cultural power lessened, or are they just less vocal now?

(+) Yeah! (+)

With every year that goes by, there are fewer boomers, and that brings a smile to my face.

"I am happy when people die."

Get your head checked.

They are referring to people who have been doing everything they can to ruin our generation. It's not so much that they are celebrating death as they are celebrating their own future.

Stop. He's celebrating the death of an entire generation. It's ghoulish and gross. GanglyKhan is right, get your head checked.

the hilarity of posting this on the boomiest websight of all

This is more like a gen-x/millenial website

But kids do not exist here anymore. Everyone here has had an account for 7+ years.

Millennials are the new boomers.

We should rename ourselves to "Boomer Light" or "Boomer Ice"

More millenials like minions than baby Yoda, sorry

Well we used to be the Harry Potter, Rick and Morty fans, and Elon Musk bootlickers, so I guess we're due for a new identity now that all our cultural icons have turned out to be duds.

All Millenials have left is baby Yoda, so we are the baby Yoda generation.

Pretty sure Millennials and Zoomers are doing a pretty good job of that all on their own.

I'd ask what those generations are going to do once there's no Boomers left to blame for stuff going wrong, but let's be honest, you're all going to keep blaming the Boomers long after they're dead anyway.

"I am happy when people responsible for all the bad shit that's happened in the past four decades die, because that's some karmic justice for you."

We're not the geniuses that implemented the hugely successful pro-business government that's lead to record-breaking costs of living

We're going to clean up your mess and you can keep complaining about it, then maybe our kids will be able to move out before the age of 30. Oh that's another thing, we don't endlessly hate on our kids for things we did. As if Zoomers have done anything at all. If those guys are idiots it's because you broke the education system.

Unless you are one of those kids that acts like a Boomer is anyone over 27 or so this is not a true Boomer website. The average age of this website is probably around 35 so we are talking older millennials and younger gen-xers.

I don't know what you're on about but the American Dream is dead because of Boomers. There was the idea that if you worked hard your kids could have a better life than you did growing up. I have an objectively worse quality of life than my parents or grandparents because I had less opportunity and that is pretty common for millennials.

Why are you trying to debate this? Do people actually think it's because every millennial is lazy because of some crap they see on tv?

I doubt you'd be willing to take a time machine and live as just an ordinary person 60 years ago.

let's be honest, you're all going to keep blaming the Boomers long after they're dead anyway.

I would be willing to go back to a time I'd be able to afford having a family.

Giving birth costs $18,865 on average, including pregnancy, delivery and postpartum care, according to the Peterson-Kaiser Family Foundation

"I'm making crass and dumbass generalizations about literally hundreds of millions of people, stereotyping them and treating every single one of them as if there were no differences between any of them, blaming them all even for things they may have actually fought against, based on zero information about them other than the year in which they were born. Because, y'know, it's simple and easy and I'm intellectually lazy and I enoy blaming entire groups. But at least I'm not a bigot like those boomers are." The irony's sweet enough to rot your teeth.

You morons don't even realise that you're the very thing you claim to despise. Ageism is one of the last sanctuaries for bigoted fuckwits who know that kind of shit can still get an approving pat on the head from their peers even when racism, sexism and homophobia can't.

Next you're going to tell me I can't hate British people because that's "racist".

If you hate all British people, yep, that's right.

You have a point but unfortunately you only need 60% to go along with you to change the world for the worse.

Super weird that PO uses his main as a shit posting account and switches to Zeus when he wants to actually argue about stuff

Genetically I'm half British/German, you can tell because my teeth are all fucked up and I think I'm better than everyone else.

If I told a German I was German they'd be pissed because "I'm not a real German". That's just the attitude.

Since this generation, or everyone born after 2000 is a waste anyway, why even bother getting vocal? Besides even the youngest boomer are over 60 now...

But hanging a placard around the neck of an entire generation and writing off billions of people as personally responsible for all the wrongs you can think of (no matter which generation is your preferred supervillain) sure doesn't change the world for the better.

And call me pessimistic, but I'm afraid that after the last of the boomers is in the ground, you'll find the very people you grew up with are making their own fair share of insane political choices and it's nothing to do with the year in which they were born. The cycle continues.

Also why are you coming in to say "Um exchuse me there are exceptions" like we don't fucking know?

How is being upset about the politicians that were elected and the policies that were implemented "generalizations"?
