"Boomers "rebellion" was more about getting laid than anything else... bunch of idiotic dupes the KGB played like the suckers they were.

And in the meantime, a whole lot of boomers were in the military, fighting another war. Had you forgotten those boomers? I thought so.
Others were laying the groundwork for the computer you're typing on. Still others were becoming doctors, missionaries, ministers, and other folks.
Mineral Man,
Of course there were good folks in the Boomer Gen.. but again you try to claim things not your own... the IC was not developed by a Boomer at AT&T (1958) and Neither was the Computer Eniac went online in 1946, they've certainly been improved over the boomers adult lives, but hardly did they develop them... I don't think any toddlers were involved in the developing of ENIAC, and I really don't reacal any pre teens or teens on the development team for the IC.
When you look at the societal legacy of the Boomer generation, you see that the foundations of american culture and life were hugely undermined during your watch.
Abortion, Divorce, Cut N Run, the removing of Religion from the public square, the rise of moral relativism, etc etc etc all happend during your watch.
Doesn't mean all Boomers were bad people, or wicked or evil. The fact we deal today with 30 or 40% of the population who believe that we should run away from an enemy that killed thousands of civilians in a cowardly attack shows exactly how far things have fallen. That is the legacy of what started when the commies infiltrated the foundations of this nation in the 50s and 60s.
I don't hate all boomers, not remotely... but its very difficult to see what they have squandered and not judge it in a less than flattering way.
