    OK Boomer.

    While I agree that Republicans have absolutely marked younger generations as the enemy, Democrats are doing the exact same thing with older generations.

      Mm no, we’re not going to “both sides” this. First of all, OK Boomer was not invented by the democrats nor is it a democratic harping point. The democrats have some of the oldest politicians of all time in The White House and running Congress.

      Secondly, the Democrats don’t actively legislate against the interests of old people, as Republicans do with their war on reproductive rights, resistance to college debt forgiveness, and terrible environmental record.

      So no: it is not in any way or degree “the exact same thing.”

        Democrats on Reddit were literally cheering for more boomers to die in the pandemic so Republican voters would die out. Denying that it happens doesn’t mean that it doesn’t happen.

          I didn’t realize everyone on Reddit wore their voter registration on their profile.

            I have a hard time believing that Republicans would be cheering for old people to die so their states can become more blue.
