Preface: Gen X here. So don't give me crap about being a butthurt boomer.
PLEASE! Learn some history.
I grow weary of the constant boomer bashing. In point of fact they were born post WW II. That is what "The Baby Boom" was all about - millions of men that thought they were going to die and suddenly found out they were instead a super power.
No. The traitors that made all this possible are Generations 6 and 7. THEY are the people that VOTED IN:
-
The Federal Reserve and fiat money - the evil that made all other evils possible.
-
The Income Tax. Which opened the private finances of Every American to government inspection and looting. The Income Tax was sold to the people out of pure vindictive envy. No one even pretended it was for a good cause. It was openly sold as a way to punish the 5% of the population for the fact they had the most money. It was never supposed to apply to anyone else. It was specifically sold so one American could hurt another American for the sin of being successful. From the standpoint of "original sin" we deserve what we have gotten vis a vi income tax.
-
Gave women the right to vote. If The Fed was the suicide weapon letting women vote pulled the trigger. Government would no longer be constrained by what was possible. Government could do anything that crossed the fancy of the voters
-
Reelected Woodrow Wilson. A traitor and communist that had already done #1 & 2 above. But he also single handedly forced the US into WW I. All combatants were broke (gold standard again) and exhausted from their utterly pointless war. The 120,000 pointless US deaths sealed the vindictive Treaty of Versailles. Which absolutely ensured WW II -- where many millions more would die.
-
They voted in Prohibition. This was the first time the US Government became the OFFICIAL Enemies of the American people. Today most people view the government with at best unease and suspicion. But that wasn't the case before prohibition. STORM TROOPERS that were more or less indistinguishable from the soon to rise up NAZI Brown Shirts cruised the country engaging in murder and mayhem.
-
Prohibition also brought organized crime to America. There was never an organized crime problem before because the government had never before used such Militaristic tactics against the citizenry. Well not since the civil war at least....
-
After Wilson they voted in Herbert Hoover. A man that got his start as the "Food Czar" during WW I, he knew a thing or two about how to oppress a free people. The time bomb of "The Great Depression" also detonated on his watch.
-
The Great Depression was "Great" because the second most evil man to ever head the Executive Branch of government was Franklin D Roosevelt. This MONSTER fancied himself the reincarnation of Napoleon. Not since Lincoln had the US seen such dramatic departures from the rule of law. From threatening the Supreme Court to confiscating the people's gold this was what it looks like with the Satan worshippers get their own Messiah come to earth. His wicked rein would continue through FOUR elections. Only death finally removed him. Who kept putting this demon back in the white house GENERATION 6 & 7.
-
But the depression was just the opening act. FDR wanted into WW II. But a people that had living memory of WW I were not so eager to spread their children's blood across the globe again. FDR spent years shipping supplies to England against international law. But he was evil -- NOT stupid. He spent nearly a decade setting up the Japanese. Japan was our WW I ally. "Japanese Manifest Destiny" was drummed into them for years. And when they finally started to conquer East Asia FDR was right there. Right there to put a trade embargo on them while US fighter planes dueled with them in the skies over China. Japan was set up to do something rash. And they did not disappoint. Their attack on Perl Harbor allowed FDR and Generation 6 & 7 to absolutely DRENCH the planet in American blood.
And the rest is history,
Did the boomers rally for the destruction of society? Absolutely! But remember they grew up in broken homes. Divorce and unwed mothers weren't the norm then. But during WW II women went to work and abandoned their families. This became the new normal. Boomers never had a stable home in which to grow up. They were raised by the new Hypno Gourd (Television). And of course lots and lots of people that were equal parts powerful and evil from Gen 6 were eager to feed them amoral behavior; who doesn't love Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll.
Obviously this isn't the nation the founding fathers hoped for. But it is pretty much the one Thomas Jefferson expected us to have. They gave us the best tools they could. Boomers didn't flush it down the toilet of history. They were in fact the very first ones caught in the suction.

What makes you think it's the shit in the past people are mad about?
I'm mad about the policies boomers continue to support inspite of having had decades to learn better.
Go to a gun-control rally then try a pro-immigration rally. Take note of the demographic over represented advocating against the interest of their nation and offspring.

Divorce hit Gen X much harder than the boomers. Most boomers grew up in intact families. The 70's and 80's was when divorce rates skyrocketed.
knightwarrior41 ago
great points OP
but the QTARDS which mostly are boomers still suck lol
Splooge ago
Boomers are despised precisely because of their actions throughout history.
FridayJones ago
Name the worst one. And it will probably wind up being something that happened at least a year before the Boomers became eligible to vote at age 21. Civil Rights Act? Silent Generation. School integration? Silent Generation. Immigration Reform Act? Silent Generation. Roe v. Wade? A SCOTUS comprised of Greatest/Silent Generation members. Women's Lib, bra burning, Equal Rights Amendment campaign, No Fault Divorce? All that began while the oldest of the Boomer chicks were teenagers.
Thing is, the real culprits in the worst decisions ever made in America are all dead now. Time to man up and start fixing something other than the blame, assholes.

Shit that went down a LONG time before the first Boomers could vote in 1966. The USA recognized the state of Israel in may 1948: https://history.state.gov/milestones/1945-1952/creation-israel
Was Richard M. Nixon a Boomer? https://ifamericaknew.org/stat/usaid.html
Were JFK or LBJ Boomers? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel%E2%80%93United_States_relations#Kennedy_and_Johnson_administrations_(1961%E2%80%931969)
Was Carter a Boomer? https://www.history.com/topics/middle-east/camp-david-accords

This is the absolute truth.
Phantom42 ago
Lol. Still think Nazi's were the bad guys?
This discredits a helluva lot of anything you have ever said.
knightwarrior41 ago
they were part of the hegelian dialectic in order to give birth to the state of israel and give more power to communism

The Devil's Synthesis.

Correct.
Phantom42 ago
Lol. Good one.
knightwarrior41 ago
huh? i'm not even joking here dude

Boomers legitimately did most of the fucking up. It all started in the 60s when people started being selfish and self-centered rather than considering community and group.

Well don't worry about the bashing. You won't be here much longer and your last years will be spent in the care of those you imported and supported from all the third world shitholes. Enjoy your golden years boomer.

They are shills and low iq children who are trying to deflect away from their own failures (children tricked by shills) or simply to divide (shills).
You need to keep in mind more than 60% of millennials are complete garbage and are stealing air from the rest of us. They know they are worthless and are desperate to blame others for their failings.
Two things they are known for is grandiose and unjustified self-entitlement and refusal to accept responsibility for anything. It's always someone else's fault. Never theirs.

The truth hurts?
All those things you mentioned you did nothing about stopping them. Nothing at all
