Millennials and Gen Z have to pay many times over what it cost the Gen X for a quality education

Due to decades long processes set in motion by boomers and older while Gen X were still children if born at all.

The Boomers aren't running anything anymore, they're median age 66 ffs

Half of Congress (54% of Republicans in Congress) is 65 or older. The president is too old to even be a boomer

Their first act as voters was either Reagan or Bush Sr

The first presidential election where they were old enough to vote, the only other realistic challenger was the VP of the president who had been successfully smeared in the media as the most inefficient in modern history and the alternative in 88 was Dukakis. In both cases, the Republican won by a landslide in a media landscape of intense gaslighting and other propaganda in their favor, so you can hardly blame Gen X for them.

They've devoted their lives to sex, drugs, and alcohol

Not even remotely true and even if it was, that would be a hell of a lot better than devoting your life to work and money

They still share the boomer view on gender roles, that only men wear pants and go to work, that girls like pink and boys like blue. Anything outside of that very specific framework is viewed as creepy and immoral.

Also false of the majority. In their youth, Gen X were pretty much DEFINED by rebellion against the societal norms of previous generations, including outdated and restrictive gender roles.

In the nicest way possible, the world will be much better when Gen X is gone.

Sounds like there's more of a YOU problem than a Gen X problem tbh..

Jealous?

And if we keep this up your grandkids will say the same about you.

They’ve devoted their lives to sex, drugs, and alcohol.

Only 90% of our lives, but the rest we just wasted.
