They were also originally called the 'Me' generation... and that's accurate. They're broadly spoiled brats, malignant narcissists. To the extent that this was surprising and unexpected, difficult to comprehend by the Silent generation and older.

Try telling a Boomer they're actually wrong about literally anything.

That's rude, to them. You're insulting them.

Because that would mean they aren't already perfect.

They'll never thank you for correcting an error.

They don't want to learn and grow, they want to be told how wonderful and smart they are and always have been.

The Boomers of the US will be literally reviled by future political historians... there's no way to be objective about what has happened, what they have done, how they squandered their immense privilege... and were so immensely arrogant while doing so... no way to comprehend it, and not be digusted.

They burned down the world.

... simply incredible.
