The foot soldiers in the Marxist/pantheist environmental movement may be GenX, but the movement has been run by boomers for decades.
And the movement was started in the '20's IIRC, just not embraced until the boomers needed another way to rebel.

GenXers never needed much persuasion to get on board with ecosocialism. Many of their spiritual leaders, such as Joel Kovel and Arne Naess, predate the boomers.
You know, sometimes I wonder if GenXers aren't mad because they had to grow up listening to disco, the REAL shameful legacy of the boomer generation. ;-)
