          The real Boomers were the assholes we met along the way.

      That’s because pidgeonholing people into “generations” has always been stupid. The common thread is an absolute lack of empathy. Let’s just call them “late boomers”. And if there are decent boomers, just call them “early Xers” or “late silent” accordingly.

      Unfortunately, a lot of Gen X went that way.

        Nuance is hard. It’s all just binary, isn’t it?
