It is easy to blame others, rather than face your own failings.
Boomers
* stood en mass and protected the right to women’s health care when it was threatened. Today? No one cares.
* stood en mass to protest numerous wars against humans around the world. Today? No one cares.
* stood en mass in direct non violent protests in support of numerous progressive values and programs. Today? No one cares.

The generations that preceded “Boomers” were much more brainwashed into supporting the corporate MIC agenda worldwide. The “Boomers” were the start of an increase in human awareness of the facts of our condition together. The corporate game of both labeling, and creating and exaggerating our differences is a corporate policy that keeps all generations from focusing on what would actually change things.

Stop blaming people, learn from their mistakes and do better with your own efforts.

Where “Boomers” failed?
* They got lost in the consumption of resources past their needs. This is more true of current generations, who consume even more stuff they don’t need like crazy! This excess consumption was offered, just like in Brave New World, so that people would be too busy to be active. It worked then, and also now.
* The Boomers stupidly believed in the statements of a scourge of corporate front movements, which served to co-opt their own efforts by destroying the efforts of honest people from the inside of their own organizations. This is called “black ops” and is continued even more on current attempts to unify people through organizing in any way with other people, in a context that challenges corporatism, and it’s leaders in any way around the world. yes, it’s true at least the Boomers tried. Show me a younger generation who is trying to change our world, instead of simply bitching about the “Boomers”!
* The Boomers got addicted to elective corporate medicine, which created a very high probability that the Boomers you are speaking with, have been on meds so long they are not rational.
Unfortunately, this has occurred with Millennials and Gen zr’s at a MUCH younger age, with their meds having been prescribed at a much younger age. We’ll see how that all works out as they age!

I think it would be wise to research the funding of this author, in order to determine their prejudice, and who pays them to write.
