I mean,

I’m not GenX. I’m not Millennial.

I can blame boomers for all my problems.

But one day, I’ll be the age they currently are.

And young people will say “why didn’t you do anything? This is all your fault!”

And, to some extent, it is. Despite me being, at nearly every turn, on the right side of history. I was against the Afghanistan, Iraq war. Against Donald. Against Hillary and Kamala in the primaries. Against the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Against the war in Iran.

The unfortunate truth is that there are assholes in every generation. If Gen Alpha thinks they are different, I’m sorry, but no. There are vicious, pernicious assholes in your generation, too.

It’s good people versus evil. Two steps forward, one step back.

Now and forever.
