It does seem unfair to paint a broad stroke like that. For example, my parents were extremely left-wing boomers.

Just tbf that is not unstereotypical at all lol. It was literally "the hippie generation", after all.

It's so funny seeing boomers lose their shit because of "ok boomer."

Yeah. But I hate people who trash talk millennials, and my reflexive is to take my anger about it out on boomers as kind of a counter act.

It's always weird when you see millenials hate on other millenials and then think they aren't millenial lol

Millennials and Gen Z have a legit reason to hate boomers.

I don't think most people in any of the generations "hate" other generations. It's either generalizing an entire generation based on your personal sampling of that generation to shit post on the internet or they are people that want to place blame on other so as not to face it themselves.

Not really. At least, not in a way that's uniquely cruel/unfair. People have been shitting on other generations for God knows how long.

Most boomers were hippies and hippies were massive liberals. I never understood why people accuse all boomers of being conservative

Yeah its weird lol. I figure there has to be quite a mix if anything. I guess its more anger at some of the major political changes that happened during the boomer era. But obviously thats not every boomers fault.
