Blaming everyone within a generation for your own failings is typical left wing garbage.

The baby boom led to the largest shift in the demographics of the modern workforce. As baby boomers entered the workforce it coincided with steady and prosperous economic growth and a dearth of older workers to compete with as they moved through the ranks. They were promoted to the senior ranks earlier than previous generations and have stayed well into their sixties, enabling them to continue to amass wealth in a way that their parents did not. Millennials and Gen Xers have entered the workforce amid lower rates of growth and with less opportunities due to such a large percentage of older workers. We will need to reimagine the narratives of success at work that no longer align with what the boomers experienced throughout their careers.

This is what I am saying.

This explanation is the combination of three trends which together have had a profound effect on the modern workforce:
A baby boomer demographic that emerge into a healthy and growing workforce in the 1980’s and 1990’s and were able to succeed through high rates of growth and limited competition from older members of the workforce for good jobs
A baby-boomer demographic that is choosing to stay in the workforce longer than previous generations
A resulting emergence of bad jobs and pseudo career paths due to lower rates of organic growth throughout the economy and boomers deciding to work later in their careers

I remember a baby boomer mom, who was an incredible bitch by the way, married a prominent surgeon that killed himself, (I think to get away from her), bragging that we (generation X) were going to be first generation not to do better than their parents. I quickly quipped backed “Yeah because you guys screwed everything up and have taken everything for yourselves so all the future generations are screwed now”
My buddy who was renting a little house from her for like 500 bucks a month (it was 40 years ago) told me when she left she would show him these paintings and Remington iron castings she bought on a whim for 5,000 dollars the. Complain she couldn’t buy groceries if he didn’t pay his rent on the first. (Which was a lie)
I did frick the hell out of this girl on her bed once just out of spite

The elderly are literally going further left than they previously did, what are you on about? They are the ones who have shifted left, the youth saved this country last election.

This is spot on. My boomer grandfather even realizes all of this.

Employment of Critical Theory does not necessarily make one a communist (Nazi holdings were classic CT), but CT is requisite in Marxism. Ascription of present day woes of youth, whether real or imagined, to all individuals born between 1946 and 1964, while demeaning such individuals as uniformly horrible and disqualified from societal service, is classic Critical Theory.
Carlson's claim that he and his dad are great because they were born in 1941 and 1969 respectively, as opposed to anyone born 1946-1964, is as irrational as any contention of universal aryan superiority or entrepreneurial-capitalist evil. There is no daylight between foundational contentions in any of those instances.
Tucker and Kirk are literally playing the role of Nikole Hannah-Jones here, albeit with a whiter face and a different blame target.
As stated earlier, the contention is that Gens X, Y, and Z are impeded by repulsive boomers "who took it all." Inherently that insinuates wealth is static rather than created. It does so in a setting where the second richest human on the planet is both self-made and a millennial.
Further in this supposed stagnant wealth system, strangely enough, all 10 of the richest Americans are 1st generation wealth. Worse yet, in this system where supposedly "boomers took it all," only 3 of those top 10 richest Americans are boomers, and that's only because Bezos was born in 1964, rather than a few months later.

i don't pretend to know what phucker tarlson is and neither do you,
phucker tarlson is just a persona and a character that he plays on the interweb and television the difference is you're a gullible idiot that falls for it.
i guess it's easier for you to blame your lack of success on my generation than look in the mirror.

All that just to say: "If you don’t like Boomers, you’re a Nazi!"
But let me ask again if Critical Theory and Marxism were created, developed, and institutionalized by Boomers and the Silent Generation, long before Millennials were even born, why are you using them as a retort against Millennials?
Boomers are the first generation to leave America worse than they found it. Congratulations.

no if you don't like boomers i don't give a schit i've got mine what's keeping you from getting yours? specifically, and if you've got yours why do you care what anybody has. i guess i didn't get the memo in 1961 that if everyone born that year didn't do great collectively then none of us did great.
that's communism.

I've asked more than few times (this and other threads) for someone to explain how things are worse now, for any generation, than they were a generation ago. Nobody answers outside of some whining about how young people struggle to buy their first home, but that's not a new thing, and it's doable today if you want it enough.
So, what is worse today than a generation ago that is rightfully placed at the feet of boomers?
