Baby Boomers should just be put in mass graves.- Post 53

Qaml - I'll ask you this because you seem to be the one who starts most of this threads that just turn into a boomer bashing session, and you probably have more knowledge of your generation than I do. Is this kind of thinking widespread among Xers or is it just thread trolling?

It's wide spread.
No need to ask him - you can ask anybody in that age group.

On previous threads run by these kids there have been multiple postings calling for euthanasia of boomers. Many have esposed the idea that we deserve it for Roe v. Wade even though the SC was made up entirely of "greatest generation" and older folks, and there were zero boomers holding elected positions at any national level.

Next time it happens, take note of who does it. Dollars to doughnuts you'll find repeat offenders, which spells THREAD TROLL!

For the record, Thread Troll would be a good name for a band.

Well I am the keeper/maintainer of the Xer ping list so I am on the lookout and get pointed to "Generational" articles. But what can I say the reason why baby Boomer articles come up a lot is Baby Boomers just like writing about themselves so there are lots of articles, "Modesty" is not a word that describes the baby boomers. I am not writing vanities here, These "Whoppers" recently have pretty much fallen right into my lap.

and you probably have more knowledge of your generation than I do. Is this kind of thinking widespread among Xers or is it just thread trolling?

Yes it's widespread and as the deficit gets larger, More and more of these health/safety/nanny laws pass and lawsuits get filed and Boomers demand more and more benefits it's only going to grow. There has always been generational strife in past which usually ends when the younger generation grows older but it's different with the boomers because no generation has ever been so utterly selfish and forced their own children and grandchildren give them so much. It's been brought up that it's really FDR and LBJ to blame since they started it all, True enough however it can be argued that they could have never totally foreseen the mess we are facing while today's Baby Boomers know full well what a huge burden they will be placing on us and not only are they not doing anything to fix it they still continue to pile on the demands more and more goodies. Put yourself in our place, How would you feel?

As for euthanasia, As of now I am sure most Xers aren't for it, Though it would be quite ironic if we did start since so many Baby Boomers fought so hard for gun control that they left themselves defenseless

BTW, My parents were Baby Boomers and they were excellent, But I am the exception to the rule
