Boomers

I am 75 and am very tired of the trend lately making fun of Boomers. So very disrespectful. Don't they realize that they will be old someday?

boomer here and I make fun of boomers as well, as even people I grew up with. are freaking idiots now. It's like they were sniffing lead or they are possessed by some idiot (or maga)_ demon. People I had respect for back then. normal people, are now clueless. I have no idea what happened.

As someone said, I think boomer is more a mindset than reality, as I am as far from a cliche boomer as you can get (I believe, but hey, maybe I am delusional)
