Generally, "ok boomer" is only used when someone mentions something that doesn't align with younger sociopolitics, like being homophobic or anti-environmental.

Yeah. Its both boomers and millennials bitching back and forth at each neither admitting any fault even if its true and neither backing down from the blame game.

While Gen X and Gen Z seem to be like what the fuck ever. Unless lots of millennials think Gen X and boomers are the same and boomers think millennials and Gen Z are the same.

The true answer is, because they grew up in a world that revolved around them.
They were the largest generation in history, so all decisions were made around them.
The very notion that their world order is wrong, freaks them the fuck out.

In short, they are used to getting their way and have seldom heard the word, No.

Literally every generation doesnt like the changes in newer generations. In time you millennials will be crying about Gen Z.

Also shitting on previous generation to make yourself fell justified in being condescending is also a thing every generation does.

I'm not a millennial.

And yes, I do think the Boomers dropped the ball.
They did some good things, but lost their way.
Decent people, horrible parents, and custodians of the public realm.
