No, that generation voted for conservative politicians who lead us directly to where we are now. I know the real blame lies with the politicians and capital class, but Reagan was elected in an absolute landslide - everyday boomers are not blameless.
More than 50% voted for Reagan, and older people vote more conservatively in general. I’m well aware that there were leftist people then (arguably more than nowadays), but as a generation they royally fucked us. That’s the point, and you’re acting like we’re calling out your grandma specifically lol.
