    I see it plenty without the media stoking it. Here on Lemmy, etc.

    It’s the same dumb tribalism as always, often backed up by some real data or trends (that tend to get twisted)

    No, not every “boomer” is spoiled and ruining America, and 75% of the people you call boomers aren’t even boomers. Not every Gen Z is lazy and entitled and scrolling phones all day. Etc.

      Crabs in a bucket. If we can’t find the things that make us alike with our cohorts, it’s going to be very difficult to ever affect any sort of change.

      The median age of U.S. senators is 65. Who do you think is voting for those people?

      The Boomer generation absolutely deserves to be shit on.
