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?
I’m a final year Boomer, so on the cusp of Gen X. I think you generalize too much. The main point of agreement is that the youngest generations are pussified. Having spent many years abroad I can confidently say these generational classifications apply mainly to Canada and the US, and to a lesser extent other western countries. The problems facing western countries and the attitudes people have in these countries are not shared by much of the world. The people I have worked with from much of Asia, Australia and NZ, and parts of Africa, regardless of age, are much tougher, driven and don’t want to put up with shit. They don’t need safe spaces. They want to work hard and do well and make money. Women are feminine and men are masculine. The western world has neutered three or four successive generations. It’s a tragedy. Parts of the so-called developing world will pass the west in a couple of decades, and that’s ignoring parts that are already ahead.
