My parents’ generation, yet I would never blame “boomers” outright..
Every generation inherits a mess. That’s not new, that’s life. The boomers protested wars, marched for civil rights, built the internet, and yes, made mistakes. Just like yours will. Just like every one has.
It’s easy to point fingers. Harder to roll up your sleeves. But if you’re truly cleaning up, congrats, you’re standing on the shoulders of people who did something, even if imperfectly.
So if you don’t want to hear from the people who built the world you’re trying to fix, that’s fine. Just don’t pretend you’re the first to care.
