What kicked off the boomerbashing all of a sudden?
I'm not sure the genesis but the first post I saw of it was a response to Joel Barry. Then a bunch of boomers piled on to call us all spoiled brats for wanting to eat out.
There was also kevin O'Leary from Shark Tank lamenting that kids these days makung 70K are having $28 lunches.

@Terry @KekistaniWanderer Pretend boomers are right for a minute, that it's the youth that's the problem not cost of living or wages. Do they ever address why they raised an entire generation of lazy financial illiterates? That they left their children so ill prepared.
@parker@dsmc.space @Terry@poa.st @KekistaniWanderer@poa.st We don't really need to "debate" people who are not qualified to be in charge when we can simply overpower them by force. The fuck are they gonna do?
@thragg @Terry @KekistaniWanderer they're managing their investment accounts from cruise ships and retirement homes and yet no one's ever done anything yet. You gonna grease their walker and their orthopedics so they slide off the deck?
@parker@dsmc.space @Terry@poa.st @KekistaniWanderer@poa.st Are you challenging me to form a militia or something? Because I don't have any better options on advancing my interests in the future. That sounds like fun. We don't need to go after randoms on vacation, we need to seize key territories away from them, that's the source of their income. They'll have no ability to take it back. The more interesting question is which territories we should start with.

@thragg @Terry @KekistaniWanderer I'm just saying don't say you're going to take all their stuff when you're not going to, since people have been saying for years they're going to take all their stuff and never have.
The successful movements like that always have significant backing. But it's been Soros who's been backing them for the other team. For the rest of us, the productive option is to do what the Mennonites, Hutterites, Amish have done. Piss off to your own spot and try to draw as little attention as possible.

@parker@dsmc.space @Terry@poa.st @KekistaniWanderer@poa.st That's not appealing at all. Number one you can't avoid the problem, number two this is a violation of the warrior's spirit. Even if it was just the thought that counts, the fact that you're not thinking about conquering them is off putting. I have a duty to overthrow them. There's no just live in the middle of nowhere and ignore it.
@thragg @Terry @KekistaniWanderer No, it's not appealing at all. It's boring, takes hundreds of years, everyone shits on you for running away, and you get to enjoy none of the payoff. But the Hutterites et al are much closer to inheriting the world, or at least their world, than you or I. They have land, money, resources, population growth, so it works. Conquering also works, but requires having more power and resources than the other side, which is currently lacking. So if the option is to win, and not just feel good, it requires the long game.
@parker@dsmc.space @Terry@poa.st @KekistaniWanderer@poa.st I don't have any future waiting for me even one century from today, I need changes in my life now. There's a faction war for power, I just need to advance my faction to get gains in my own life.
@thragg @Terry @KekistaniWanderer If there is a 100% chance that you will never have kids under any circumstances, you have terminal pancreatic cancer or something, then I can see going out in a blaze of glory as the best option. But in most cases the long game is probably more effective.
