Ah, the new propaganda has started, and they're attacking Gen X for whatever reason? Guess the boomers are dying off and someone needs a new scapegoat? Seeing a lot of variations on "Thanks to Gen X for screwing up (insert whatever)". Not sure what the value of it is. Gen X didn't really have much of a shot at making any long-reaching policy, the boomers stayed in charge for as long as they could hang on to everything and created pretty much all the issues we're facing now. Gen X never much of a shot, they just kept telling us to turn on the TV and eat the TV dinners.
Idk why that is relevant to this post he is referring to twitter now called X not blaming specifically the generation X here.
My comment was in reference to social media, which this post is referring to along with bots, and if it is bots, my comment was regarding a shift in focus - blaming Gen X instead of boomers.
