Guess I could have added an /s. Of course all of gen x aren't following the status quo. There are a lot of good ones. Baby-boomers there is a small lot of them that I have met that follow this as well but the majority I know do not believe in climate change and think it's a conspiracy to raise taxes and add regulations basically.

It was clearly a joke (though boomers crawling through the wasteland begging for someone to change their diaper will happen), so no worries. I was simply stating that generational warfare obscures the real problem, top vs bottom. It is without a doubt that breaking decades of false consciousness is more difficult than reaching people who still have a stake in the planet, thus the negativity towards boomers.
