@Lana Many boomers are ready for the conversation, and they've been having it since they were politically active. The currently younger generations are statistically far more right-wing than baby boomers ever were.

As you correctly identified, it's never been a generational conflict but an economic one, so why walk back on that and frame it as "boomers are the problem" again?

Objectively and observably, tons of boomers are on our side here.

@Lana People old enough to amass wealth and hold public office? Gee, next you're going to tell me people born after 2007 drink less alcohol on average than those of any previous generation!
Baby boomers protested the Vietnam war way more than people born after the turn of the millennium; I wonder why that is. Must be that younger people are more anti-Vietnam, surely!

It's almost as if young people are young, and old people are old.

Do you seriously think that the baby boomer generation somehow magically born more evil than the later ones, and when millennial or Gen Z billionaires are in power, things will fix themselves because they're biologically born more progressive or something?

The very obvious causative relationship between right-wing politics and the people running it is economic power, not an arbitrary age group.

To spell it out: baby boomers hold conservative public offices because they've had more time on average to become rich and powerful, and not because they happen to be baby boomers.

There's a ton of progressive and left-wing baby boomers; on average less than there are progressive and left-wing younger people, but that is solely because the latter are more likely to be poor & working class.
