Wait what? Can you describe what a boomer mindset is exactly? I always understood "boomer" to be someone born between a specific post WWII time frame.

Yes, this was my understanding of it as well.

Again, what is this mindset? Can you quantify it for me? Is there something specific or is it just a derogatory term used against someone that doesnt agree with your logic, beliefs or thinking? Serious question.
