From my own personal experience it's the Boomers who love Neocon shit like Kenney and Doug Ford. They're also the ones terrified of COVID so they're currently the ones praising how good the lockdowns are. Most millennial are liberal as fuck and they're the most pussified generation alive right now, and I'm speaking as a millennial myself. They're always bitching about how Boomers ruined the job market but pretend like it's not their own fault for getting a shitty arts degree.
All the people I look up to and respect are older Gen X people I've worked with in the past. It's not even anything special. Just as a general pattern, the most reasonable and non-retarded people I've dealt with in the past are usually Gen X.
As for Gen Z, they're still kids I guess so it's too early to tell. Easy to make fun of because of their Tiktok addiction but I've done stupid shit as a kid too.
So my question is, why is that? What makes Gen X the more rational and BASED than the other groups?
The Silent Generation fought and thought they won, so they lived life and are to tired to keep up the fight anymore.
The Boomer Generation fought and thought they won, so they are trying to live life and many are to tired to keep up the fight anymore.
Gen X - My own take. My Great Grand Parents, my Grand Parents and My Parents all passed on warnings and lessons from their past. Those warnings and lessons didn't make sense then but they sure as hell do now.
Edit: I have seen based in all Generations and each Generation has its time. Gen X are in mid-life, a part of the past and a part of the future.
