Boomers are the original Ipad kids (hexbear.net)

A lot of boomer behavior and beliefs make sense when you realize this. A lot of them were raised by whatever garbage was on TV due to neglectful parents.

Do yourself a favor and watch an episode of one of these shows some time. MASH, Gilligans Island, the Andy Griffith Show, etc. Pure escapism. Simple black and white moralistic protestsnt values.

Now realize that when boomers reminisce about a time when "townspeople knew the local cop" that this never existed. They are literally just going off what they seen on the andy griffith show as a kid during their formative years.

I don't know which ones honestly. I always bounce off if they have their audiovisual opiod dispenser on. There are a legion of those, all almost identical differing only on the language and the retina burning colour scheme. I know that they watch Republic TV sometimes, and the channel which is the cesspit of that annoying dickhead Arnab something.

Edit: Might not be named Arnab but I am certain the name is Bengali.
