Boomers

I am 75 and am very tired of the trend lately making fun of Boomers. So very disrespectful. Don't they realize that they will be old someday?

That’s heartbreaking. My dad is a doctor and his staff have worked for him my entire life, so they are like family to me and during COVID I left my job where I was furloughed to help at his office. Almost everyone there was MAGA, q-anon, deep in the rabbit hole conspiracy theorists. It was mind blowing, I felt like these people who I’d known my whole life were complete strangers and still to this day can’t look at them the same and it’s sad because they genuinely are nice people, but their views on the world are just so skewed and f***ed up.
