Ok Boomer appears to finally be the retort from liberals that conservatives have had for years with snowflake.
Both need to be shot into the sun. Born out of insult and anger, neither make the world better. They simply encourage a circle of hate.
@Museek I'm in the first 5 or so years of what is defined as "millennial" but identify way more with Xers.
I see the gap a lot when my 90s born wife talks to my Boomer parents. They can be very dismissive and instead of simply not agreeing just say she is wrong. In that case, the line is maybe justified, but ultimately, and now as it's used as writing off an opinion, it falls into a two wrongs don't make a right situation-in my opinion.
@L_D_G the in between generations which are much smaller are caught in the crossfire. I can relate more to the millennials because they were handed a lot worse and many from the older generations simply don’t see their relative privilege but arguing through insult really doesn’t solve the problem. It just blows off a little steam
