Joe Biden is too old to be a Boomer, technically. He's part of the Silent Generation. So really he's just doing the traditional Silent Generation part of bowing out so a Boomer can take over.

Mark my word... Boomers will be way more savage.

They hate the poors and they hate young people outright. Policy will reflect this bias.

Younger ones feel like they didn't get their fair share since clowns like buffet etc are still running the regime. So once they finally get that power, get read for the fuckening

Boomers have been in control for a long time. They are dying now thankfully. Gen X is just now up and most of us aren’t dipshits…

Ehh I’d say quite a good amount of Gen X are like “Boomer-Lite” in how they act and live, if not full on Boomers. Especially the earlier half of the generation.

Yeah, we seem to have split into either "boomer-like" or "millennial-like" groups.
