  1. These anti-ebike and anti-escooter laws are not about "safety." They are an attempt by lobbyists and #babyBoomers to force people back into #carCulture. Bikes/Scooters are NOT more dangerous to the public than cars. NOT EVEN CLOSE!

  3. Despite nearing their 60s, most Americans have far less saved than needed for retirement. Those who are working past 65 has quadrupled in the U.S.

    Around 4 of 10 Gen X-ers & #Boomers admit pulling money out of #retirement #savings accounts to pay current #debts.

    50% of Gen Z report dipping into longterm savings plans, and even many #babyboomers, haven’t saved near enough in IRA and 401k for retirement—as most current retirees consider career ending milestone a “nightmare.”

  4. Because #BabyBoomers have been the dominant force in American culture, economy, & politics since they showed up, thousands of books have been written about them. But none quite like this. We review #BruceCannonGibney’s #AGenerationofSociopaths: the-agency-review.com/generati #sociology

  6. Da Baby Boomers a Gen Z: La (finta) scienza delle generazioni tra miti, marketing e realtà

    Se oggi aprite un social network o leggete un giornale, è quasi impossibile non imbattervi in titoli che contrappongono i "Millennial" alla "Generazione Z" o che scherzano sui "Boomer" quando la conversazione si fa paternalistica. Queste etichette sono diventate parte del nostro linguaggio quotidiano, trasformandosi spesso in veri e propri "segni zodiacali" sociologici. Ma la cosa ironica è che proprio i Baby Boomer, oggi visti come il simbolo del conservatorismo, sono stati quei ragazzi […]

  8. Generational Conflict

    In his 2020 book “Fault Lines: Fractured Families and How to Mend Them”, Karl Pillemar surveyed 1,340 Americans aged 18 and over, asking them the question: “Do you have any family members from whom you are currently estranged?” He discovered that more than a quarter of Americans surveyed, or 27 per cent, reported being estranged from a family member – a parent, grandparent, sibling, child, and so on. Extrapolated to the US adult population, that amounts to some 67 million people who are estranged from a family member. Pillemar found that ten per cent are estranged from a parent or child and eight per cent are no longer talking to a sibling. Some in the media are calling it a ‘silent epidemic’ of family break-ups.

  10. @aaron.rupar It’s not just the #MainstreamMedia that are #cowards. Almost half of the voters in the #UnitedStates elected COWARDS to *represent them* in #Congress and state legislators.

    ‘Conservative’ #BabyBoomers have *completely* trashed the #UnitedStates global reputation for courage that the #GreatestGeneration sacrificed so much to earn.

    Every #MAGA cult member must be remembered as such. Put a label on them if you have a family tree, and pass it on to future generations!

  15. TBH, the whole #GenerationJones explains why I related to folks who were older than me, but didn't seem to represent the #BabyBoomers. I did not worship Bob Dylan (though I adored Patti Smith), and most of the musicians I most strongly identified with were born in the 1954-1965 range. Hmmmm... 🤔
