Generation X, millennials, me generation, baby boomers, war generation—stop, I have lost count and really don’t care. Why is this necessary and how do we delineate “generations” as every one melds seamlessly into the next? Sorry, this is unnecessary and tiresome...
‘stop, I have lost count and really dont care.”
Oh I agree, and I bet you never heard of the “silent generation”, one of whom is John McCain.
I read this a few years ago, since McCain was not elected Pres, and just due to time, etc. no one from this silent generation will ever serve as President.
I think these are people who were born in the 1930s, and I don’t think there were so many of them, due to the depression.
So, yes, it’s hard to keep up.
” Why is this necessary and how do we delineate generations as every one melds seamlessly into the next?”
Blame Madison Avenue. It all began with a marketing campaign to target the parents of the ‘Boomers and then ‘Boomers themselves. Get your Davy Crockett hat and your Hula Hoop.
It is purposely done to be divisive. The goal is to divide us into squabbling groups.
It is a leftist tactic.
