That time when working more hours actually gave you more pay and a raise, and all at a single job. Yeah, they don’t do that anymore.
Nah, he’s right, the boomers didn’t complain. That’s why the unions are so powerless. Nice things take complaining to maintain.
(@Mechoselachia@multiverse.soulism.net look at this)
The pre-boomer generations didn’t just complain, they physically fought for and defended their rights, and the elite feared them for it.
Then the elite changed tactics - either out of fear or strategy, they gave the boomers everything they wanted, and raised a generation of people who didn’t have to fight, but felt entitled to what their forefathers had fought for anyway.
In turn, the boomers gave rise to generations of people who thought fighting was unnecessary and harmful. Now the elite are back to tearing down rights again, and not only do we not fight, but we can’t even agree that it’s necessary.
The politicians said, hey boomers you can have whatever you want but we are going to fuck literally everyone else over in the process and they were like sign me up.
One of the boomers you should be focused on instead:
WTF are you talking about?
Boomers were born between 1945 and 1965.
They had the eight hour day handed to them.
Please stop using ‘boomer’ for anything that happened before 1970.
That makes it even more funny, because boomers would complain about how hard it was for them, yet it was their parents that changed things for the better. Then when their kids talked about improving more, they told them to shut up.
Sir, this is a shitpost.
I think the education on just how much the boomers were given from the previous generation and how little they passed on to the next generation while acting like they worked for anything and were entitled to everything should be repeated as often as possible.
I get what you mean, memes like these still contribute to knowledge and consensus.
Today there are wars fought out with propaganda in forms of memes like these
I’m going to both sides it and say we need quick humor and facts. That’s some mighty fine context that you’ve added
No it isn’t, it’s a rant in a shitpost community.
Consoder that shitposts are the probably the largest form of media consumed and mis- or disinformation spreads quickly, regardless of medium.
Boomer, as an insult, now means an older out of touch person.
Language is fluid.
Edit: The dictionary agrees
Nope. Fuck off with that.
Ok boomer
You can use the word however you like, however the rest world sees this word as a name for a specific generation, born after WWII and before 65-68.

There’s a reason I specifically said, “as an insult.”
The funny part is that by refusing to accept that the use of a word in a specific context has changed makes you a boomer per the slang definition.
OK, boomer.
