What's separates Boomers and every subsequent generation from our precedecessors is not only our narcissism, our selfishness, our self-indulgence, our avarice, ignorance, sense of entitlement and sheer megalomania: it is our abandonment of the fundamental guiding purpose of humanity: that is, to leave a better world for your children than the one you inherited.
Instead, the Baby Boomer generation, whipped up into an artificial panic and confronted for the first time with the reality of their own mortality, turn around and demand that their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren give up whatever rights and freedoms are needed in order to provide them with the illusion of safety from this invisible menace. Instead of standing up for the right of subsequent generations to enjoy the same freedom and prosperity that they did, they instead demand that we be prevented from living our lives if it gives them just one more wretched, miserable day clinging on to this existence.
Well, here's a black pill for the Boomers. You can condemn your children, grandchildren and every future generation to a zombie existence with no privacy and no liberty, toiling under a perpetual regime of electronically-enforced technocrats tyranny, but you're still going to die.
Whether it's COVID or cancer or getting hit by a blimp going 15 miles an hour at ground level, you're still going to die, and so am I, and the government can't save you from it, no matter how many of your own children's freedoms you demand they take away.

This angle is criminally unexplored. We are witnessing generational vampirism on an industrial scale.
