Oi! Boomer here.
Yes, through our selfishness we destroyed the planet and are continuing to prevent any solution for the climate catastrophe. Maybe a few of us tried to be better, but as a group we deserve a huge amount of abuse…
…but don’t blame us for calling CV a hoax. Awful but true, there are many younger voices saying this too, and the wise voices are often older. The only idiots on my Facebook page saying this are young idiots.
Older people have actually experienced sickness and seen death. No older person except the delusional Republicans would ever say just the flu, and when they hear that COVID-19 is far worse, and hear the words “permanent lung damage”, they can feel that viscerally in the chest.
We boomers deserve all the abuse you can lay on us, as I said, so this doesn’t bother me one bit, but just wanted to clear the record.
