Trump represents a change to the status quo. Really it would be an improvement for them on every level, but it would screw the deep state, so a huge amount of social manipulation is spent on this group.

It's the inverse of all the middle east and asian revolutions of the past 20 years which were mostly about passing power from the boomer generation to the next one. Instead of accelerating social change, in any direction, they're resisting it in every direction. Labor colonies get revolution, consumer colonies get indoctrination.

In exchange boomers are pandered to and told they're going to live and die like Pharaohs, and magically, right after they're dead, that's when all the aggressive social and political changes will happen and everyone will suddenly learn how to own nothing and be happy anyways. As if they'd have a choice anyways, medicare ain't cheap.
