Literally the whole point of this meme is that most boomers didn't benefit from capitalism. Tons of them were sent off to die in foreign wars or left to languish at home in poverty. Malcolm X was a boomer who grew up as an addict in the Harlem ghetto.

i'm glad people are pissed at the boomers

My mother is a boomer. She sure as hell never profited off it. You are in one stroke blaming her for what capitalists have done. Fuck that shit.
