When you're called a boomer, you're being told you're older than me and therefore whatever you have to say is irrelevant to me.

The cancel culture is counterproductive to a free society, etc. Today we seem to demonize the messenger rather than honestly debate the message. If that defines a boomer, then I sure won’t consider being called a boomer a derogatory term, it means that one is capable of thinking independently rather than mindlessly reciting the mob narrative.



Nailed it!!

Agreed. Someone needs to coin “Zoomer”.

Zoomer: immature idiot with no real life experience who needs to shut up and go to their “safe space” while the adults talk.

“Zoomer” already exists in slang. You’re a day late and a dollar short with this insult.

I don't think anyone feels insulted when they're called boomer.

there’s a lot of evidence in this thread suggesting that you’re wrong
