    On one hand, these boomers and elderly created these problems… your generation was in charge the last 40 years!!!

    But of course as a decent society we need to help them…

    But sometimes i dream about letting leopards eat faces…

    but of course we shouldnt let that happen

      Sorry to break this to you, but these days, most GenXers are 50+, and we were never in charge of anything.

      You still believe a whole generation is at fault and deserves this? This happened during a generation but not caused by it. This is still the 10% elite greed monkeys who like to fuck with things to see the negative effects on others. They exist in every generation.

        I dont think 10% of the population is able to vote for decades neoliberal policies that erode society

        Its easy to blame billionaires and the 1%, but we ultimately live in a democracy (or at least used to)… look at the results of every election and tell me that only 10% of the population voted for this

          Most of us are nothing more than cattle being herded and are very skillfully tricked into thinking a certain way. You give the population too much credit. I should know…I’m one of those cattle. The only exception to this is when things get too tight and there is too much suffering and all hope is lost then a mob gets formed and a revolution starts. That’s when the people of any particular generation have the most power.
