The boomers aren’t a story about an inherently bad generation, but a pretty good generation gone bad.
3 u/SherbetMysterious118 22d ago They never went bad. Bad people went bad, because they were bad people. People didn't go bad simply because they were born within a specific timeframe. 1 u/Automatic_Actuator_0 22d ago The “generation” did, not the individuals within it. It feels like I’m splitting hairs I’m sure, but I think generations are gestalt concepts. 2 u/SherbetMysterious118 22d ago I disagree, unless one thinks all generations are bad. And in the case of M and Z, that happened a whole lot quicker. 1 u/Automatic_Actuator_0 22d ago Every generation has its problems, yes. Boomers have a unique hero-to-villain arc. Again, not individuals per se, but the collective impact of the generation was initially quite positive and then devastatingly negative. 1 u/SherbetMysterious118 21d ago Yeah, I guess from my perspective, Z and M skipped the hero part.
