There are lots of good boomers. I'm on the cusp, and have been disgusted with many establishment boomers but there are also many many good ones who have not been hypocritical virtue-signaling assholes.

Thank you. I am a boomer (mid seventies) And I didn't advertently play their game until retirement when I took a job as a college instructor teaching aquaculture. I quit in disgust after teaching two semesters. What a bunch of phonies our academics are. I spent my life working different production jobs as the Canadian governments shut them down one after another. Being versatile and having a love of working with my hands kept our heads out of the water. I hope the whole works of them lose everything. They'd die if they had to do a day's work. Come to think of it that would make me cry either. Our countries were built on the backs of the hard working people of this country, the ones they sent off to die in every fabricated war they could invent. Never forget their sacrifices. Blisters and callouses will rebuild our countries.
You're spot on. I spent 5 years working at a community college in CA and yeah they were all phonies, with a bloated administration sucking up all the $$. The profs were virtue-signaling cowards. It was unbearable when covid hit, so that's when I left.
I am a Boomer who stayed home and raised three children. At 76 I have watched and seen it all. The destruction of our towns by Wal-Marts, 7-Elevens, magnificent miles of car dealerships, & every chain store & fast food restaurant you can name тАж so every town looks exactly the same w/ all small businesses & exceptionalism ruined. IтАЩve watched the blue skies & puffy clouds disappear to dreary, gray sameness day after day. IтАЩve watched the beauty of lovely architecture, gorgeous fields & neighborhoods of trees, shrubs, & bushes disappear into concrete jungles with hideous flat square buildings that are depressing to look at. And murder to the human soul. IтАЩve watched people go from gloves, dresses, suits & heels on the airplanes to pajamas & bed head. IтАЩve watched schools go from disciplined formal teaching, w/ plenty of recess & lunch ladies cooking the meals to social engineering, chaos, unlimited days off, no recess & fattening, processed garbage for food.
I could go on & on. тАЬTheyтАЭ have destroyed everything they possibly could. They ruined beauty in every way. They took everything away that gave life meaning. If it werenтАЩt for my children and my faith in God I probably would not be here. So, the Boomers may be responsible but I donтАЩt know what we could do to stop them. Just as I donтАЩt know how to stop the unhinged, repulsive people doing everything in their power to destroy Trump. Voting in my Blue town is an exercise in futility, but I do it. And I pray.
Well said - this is my exact take on what they've done to towns and cities since the 1970s. It's horrific. And all we really CAN do is pray, and I think that's powerful and important. I honestly don't see any of that reversing in my lifetime and I've come to accept that. So I moved somewhere that still has lots of natural beauty (for now - although the Woke Jacobin Commies are working on destroying it and making it another concrete "info center"), and if that disappears, I'll keep moving.
IтАЩm 10 years younger and could have written this. The tragedy is I suspect most people under the age of 30 have no idea what theyтАЩve lost so they wonтАЩt do a thing to try to get it back. I donтАЩt know whatтАЩs worse - the тАЬcrudscapeтАЭ or the relentless aerial spraying. ItтАЩs like something opened the gates of Hell in the early 70s.

I couldn't have said it better, Mary!
