        They directly robbed from their children via the economy and indirectly robbed from them by destroying the environment. Caligula would blush at their wanton debauchery.

        I think this was said on Chapo awhile ago, but boomers are willing to stack millions of corpses on the southern border so they can live in their Floridian retirement communities that will be underwater in a decade. I don’t like to engage in generational politics but western boomers are largely ghoulish, soulless individuals who think they’re the only “real” person and everyone else exists to serve them in one way or another

          It’s okay to point out that out, “generational politics” doesn’t really mean anything when the people you’re talking about regularly engage in reactionary thought and practices.

          Western Boomers are unapologetically reactionary

          The people who live to see boomer old age are largely the ones being served. The servant boomers are all dying off. That’s why the concentration of the archetype you describe exists among the old.

          Capitalism literally kills the poor sooner.

      What do you mean boomers lol

      If democrats and republicans all got replaced by 20-40 year olds, they would still continue oppressive policies against Latin America and their voters, young and old, will support it.

      Ask your average young liberal or young conservative whether or not they want to give stop punishing Cuba and give money and food to Latin Americans so they stop coming to the US. They will look at you like you’re a crazy communist - which I mean is true, but it’s not even because you’re advocating for communism. Hence OP’s comment
