GenX has been fighting boomers from the start, we're just exhausted now.

When a bunch of old MAGA bastards stormed the Capitol, were they using walkers because they're over 70 on average or were they a crowd about 45-60 in age?

Bullcrap. We were too busy pretending politics didn't affect us to fight anyone.

Thanks for the apathy, I don't think it worked but it sure as shit looked cool.

Fighting? Us Gen Xers followed in the system the boomers laid out. What fighting??? The older Gen Xers got past the door. The younger half got shut out.

Wearing flannel and complaining about the status quo does not make you a freedom fighter.
