Nah, they’re the last “boomer” generation. Fed a diet of TV and no internet growing up, but just in time to secure the last slice of normal with owning a home and having a family on a decent income.

You're using that word again. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Boomer is a mindset not a timespan.

Wooooooooooosh

You're completely wrong, but if you want to confuse the word even more, go ahead.

Yeah?

You don't have to be born from '46 to '64 to be a boomer, you have to act like a boomer to be a boomer. Being fed a boomer media/social diet growing up tends to make people grow up into boomers.

You're conflating and confusing a term that has existed since the 60's to describe a time span, with complex societal, economical effects on peoples mindset today.

Your inability to describe and explain the things you want to argue is the issue. Repeating the word again and again is not helping.

[–] Deceptichum@quokk.au 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Literally explained to you, but sure I'm unable to explain.

Okay boomer.

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You said the word boomer 6 times and you think that makes you look smart. Boomer means boomer, what a genius.
