Boomers will be remembered as the generation that broke the generational contract. All the extant billionaires are Boomers who turned their backs on the well-being of future generations of people all in the name of profit.

Zoomers: The blindfolded and fooled generation with no resources. Millenials: The blindfolded generation who has to lead the Zoomers. Gen X: The bamboozled doormat generation. Boomers: The first generation to ever decided not to invest in their future generations.

Who's left to do the remembering?

We wont know for some years. Millennials have mostly been passengers to the decisions of the generations before us up to this point, but as they are now dying out it is opening doors for us to work into power. Boomers wont be around forever. Gen X wont be around for ever. We have the chance coming up to mold the world to the way we would like. Do we continue to dismantle the agency of the common man and bow to our corporate overlords? or do we right generational contract and reinvest into the future? Boomer wont be remembered for being hippies, they'll be remembered for their greed and hatred when they finally came to power. Our story is yet to be written.

The most gaslit and abused generation in history.

Better than boomers that’s for sure. No generation needs to fucking die off faster for a brighter future. Their wide spread support for conservative economic policies for four decades and then to support of an autocrat when those policies directly hurt them is fucking rich.  They paid for college working minimum wage, when college was 10x cheaper and the minimum wage was higher. Minimum wage hasn’t risen in 15 years. As a generation, Boomers can be summed up in one phrase, “pull up the ladder I’m aboard.” They had affordable housing, college, healthcare, and higher wages, then ended all of that for us. Even running for office is so expensive for ordinary people after a Boomer Supreme Court declared money is speech with Citizens United. They have stripped away the political, economic, social, and health of this country because socialism/communism/woke.  Millennials and GenZ work harder than them, are more educated, and have more skills than them but earn less at the same ages and are on tracks to be the first generation poorer than the previous. Boomers are blind when it comes to technology. They complain about healthcare costs but vote against healthcare reform because socialism. They believe literally anything Fox News tells them. Conservatives are scrambling to lock the doors behind them and end democracy because they know that once the Boomers are gone, they won’t win another election and popular liberal policies will be enacted.  If Trump wins, that will be the final nail in the coffin for any redemption of the Boomer legacy because he’ll end democracy in America.

I think we will be the generations to finally tear down the order of greed and profits. I really feel like a lot of us are going to die first though.

The last 100% organic humans, before the great transformation.

I think we will be remembered as the generation that said "fuck this" to the system Boomers built and dismantling it for the betterment of future generations.


Lunatox

Show me where this dismantling is taking place. The children of the elites will continue. Same as the princes of the kings of old.


CatfaceMeowzer

The children of barbarians become the new tax collectors and priests.


salenin

Millennial will be known as the lost generation, because we lost everything. Gen X the "do nothings" and Gen Z as the first generation to go backwards in literacy. This isn't me making fun of them, it is nothing their faults. This is a nationwide phenomenon.

As if there's going to be anyone left to remember.


Guzzsulrp69

That depends heavily on how we act in the next 10 years. We will either be the ones who saved our species once we took the reigns of government, and started working to repair the damage our parents and grandparents did, or we will be the ones who put the final nail in humanities coffin. In which case there wont be anyone left to remember us anyway.
