Not sure what you are asking. All I am saying is each generation has good and bad folks. That is just the way it is.

That goes without saying, but it misses the point that generalizations have a certain amount of validity. I'm hardly a typical Boomer or Xer (depending on where the line is drawn) but that doesn't change the fact that (A) plenty of others my age are and (B) I still do have some of the same problems. See this article and this article on stereotypes, their use, and their accuracy as generalizations.
