Yes, you enjoyed peace between races because you lived in the late 50s early 60s before the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 which intentionally shifted the demographics of the USA and imported millions of incompatible shitskins which are impossible to enjoy a peace with you fucking cunt. Who would have thought you had peace between races when you could go outside and your entire neighborhood is white just like you. That peace was destroyed by the jews and race traitors from your father's and grandfather's generation all the way back in the 60s, alongside with ''sexual revolution'', feminism, and other minority worship you and your faggot parents did back in that cursed decade
Wait till you hear about the freaking multi-billions your presidents have sent to israhell over the decades, and keep sending annually, but wait, your faggot generation has been brought up on ''judeo Christian values'' so that's probably a good thing in your eyes, maybe you should send them even more.
Speaking of which
This is good advice, packing your lunch is both cheaper and better for various reasons than eating out some slop like buying a gas station sandwich for example, I always ate the best food on work breaks, and had no time waste because I could just walk to the fridge and get my food instead of going out to a place, then ordering, waiting, and then getting to eat food, and pay more both time and money wise for those. Now I can stop work to eat and have as long of a break as I want and I still pack some homemade food.
Avocado toast and fancy lattes on top of making you a faggot also bring no value and are an unnecessary expense, along with various slop subscriptions, you see liberals in big cities indulging in these daily, on top of paying $3k+, not even to own just to rent a fucking studio in some shit big city, and complain about how they're never going to own a house. All those unnecessary expenses could be an effortless no maintenance investment in say sp500, $100 a month and your money makes you money over time with minimum effort.
The only reason there was peace was because the country was still 92% White. Easy to have peace when they don't exist and have no power.
Racial empathy has proven to be an exclusively White trait.
Unironically thanks to the protests in the US that looked more like someone emptied the retirement homes and gave them signs, there is a genuine case for justified resentment to the older generation fucking over the younger ones for their own self satisfaction.
The polls in the ongoing Canadian election, that show Trudeau 2: WEF Banker Boogaloo with a substantial lead, correspond.
Essentially the entire Liberal base of support comes from the 65+ cohort who seethe about Orange Man Bad from cable news and are completely oblivious to the Infinity Indian Invasion taking place.
The only time they see Indians is when they go to a gas station, the rest of their time they spend at the lake house that they built on land that cost $5000 CAD in 1980, now just the land value is up in the several hundred thousands.
I mean avoiding frivolous spending isn’t bad. My parents were wise with saving and back in the 80s they decided to plan for retirement as if social security wouldn’t be available. They would try to give me advice on finances but me being stupid didn’t listen until I was in my 30s.
There are quite a few things from my parents generation that was better than now but a lot needs to happen to fix things
Agreed. The point isn't that the advice is bad - it's not - it's that it's not a magic cure-all, and (many) boomers don't want to acknowledge that the economic landscape has changed...drastically.
A lot of young people could try to pull themselves up by their bootstraps - and, again, they should try; all that is good - and would find it much harder to end up with the same proportional wealth as these boomers. The opportunity, society structure, and much else has dramatically shifted and, yes, much of that was the fault of the boomers. And many want to ignore both the fault, and even the new reality, and just tell people to work hard, so they can get to where they were.
People should work hard. Effort and determination is good. People should better themselves. But it's also true the younger generations largely had the rug pulled out from under them, and will struggle just to get something nearing the same opportunities, much less outcomes, of the older generations.
Exactly. Both are true. Hard work pays off, but it's also economy dependent.
No arguments from me
It wasn't the "boomers" -- they were sold lies. The entire western world has been under a sustained brainwashing propaganda campaign since at least the 50s.
Yes, obviously the boomers could have voted for Kang instead of Kodos, but put the blame on the Powers that Be. Here in the US it's the federal government -- they did this to us, and I don't care that they were forced to because someone had coerced blackmail material on them.
Boomers are like 70 something. They're not going to read that tweet nor will they care that much.
yeah, better post it on facebook.
They'll just write a long diatribe on why I am a loser evil fascist
Jeez. As someone who does not hate the boomers...those smarmy, entitled responses are giving me cause to reconsider.
Boomers Take Responsibility Challenge: Impossible.
Like, I don't need them to admit fault on everything, and I agree that some younger people shift blame and won't take their own share of responsibility...but boomers seem allergic to admitting any mistakes were made, or that anything has changed since their time growing up. And that pisses me off.
Also, lot of generalizing from the boomers in the comments that generalizing is bad, but also all younger generations grew up rich, unlike them who grew up poor, and pulled themselves up by their bootstraps. Again, things have changed, and the less well off younger generations are the ones really getting squeezed, because the same set of opportunities aren't there to the same degree.
The boomers also seem stuck in Us vs Them mentality, and seem to think this guy is a lib and Trump hater, just because he's criticizing boomers. So that actually makes their behavior seem a little better, since they're just being reactionary to a perceived opponent, instead of honest criticism from their own side.
It is crazy though. Just like in plenty of debates, the people making the counter-argument are the most compelling case for the original argument. A bit of humility would go a long way.
It's not "boomers", it's just ignorant dimwitted normie faggots, but older. While they have generational traits, so do the younger generations - but the source of their illness is the same.
A deliberately collapsed culture and decades of propaganda.
You do realize this is the same "it's not a 'black' thing," for situations where it is very disproportionately a black thing, right?
How can you say there are generational traits, then say it's not a boomer thing...especially when I think I went out of my way to say it's not all boomers?
Yes, and that's important to acknowledge, but is also true across the board, and doesn't absolve disproportional traits.
Because the same traits exist in all generations, just with different expressions. You can't blame boomers for the existence of retards. Retards are a constant, not a boomer specific disease. And there are less retarded boomers because retards tend to die younger.
They had a good run, but the younger generations owe them nothing by now. Their lackluster parenting has already been more than paid for by their ransacking the country to feed their ridiculous habits.
Frankly overall they owe the younger generations a debt for all the things they were given custodianship over that they destroyed through incompetence and indifference. But boomers aren't going to produce anything of value now, so you do what you do with all bad debtors, evict them, reclaim partial credit from their assets, and don't give them another cent ever again.
Boomers respond to savagely to the legitimate criticisms of the younger generations because deep down they know we are right, they set us on this path and there is now nothing they can do about it.
Quit fucking archiving tweets you utter faggots. It takes forever to open, if it opens, and for what? What is the point?
It's a difficult discussion because several tweets have been taken down. Also, finding the right archive site is riddled with problems.
I have three techniques to get a tweet archived and it can take work for it to show up properly.
I couldn't even open this one it just dumped a failover. Had to copy the URL.
Archive everything you troglodyte.
Why? Literally, why? Do you think you're going to come back through some day looking for some 'evidence' in an archived Tweet? How are you even going to do that when there's no way to ever even search archived posts?
No, really, why? What is it you think you're solving here?
Shit changes within the hour for starters. I've lost count of how many times I've seen some linked tweet dead by the time I got to the thread and it's only a couple of hours old. That's before we get into malicious memory holing behavior or websites vanishing.
Where the fuck do boomers get the avocado toast stereotype?
Link doesn't work
It can just take a while with that archive, but here's the raw link.
Nitter.
Twitter archive.
Nitter archive.
That's the error it's returning.
Edit: And thanks for the other links!
I read the Twitter link and the replies from boomers.
Their responses were as bad as I expected.
