I have a theory.
It isn’t that they caused things, it’s that they don’t acknowledge things.
Back in my day is fairly useless when the current day is on the doorstep of ■■■■■■■ collapse.
Boomers love a smashed avo excuse and I don’t think are great at empathy.
I’m generalising of course, but it’s hard for people who haven’t faced a set of circumstances to understand that they can be difficult.
That’s not exclusive to boomers, that’s human nature.
Boomers are the first generation of not quite smart enough for the internet to be given the opportunity to populate it heavily also. That does t help.

Such a sweeping generalisation…it’s amazing how many experts on “The Boomer Generation” we have here on Blitz.

One can only imagine.
he’ll explain it right after he acknowledges luck in his own life success.
No, there have been errors discovered. But any error has been marginal and apart from in McEwen in 2007, not to a result changing extent.
See from an APH report in 2008:

You arrogant prick…just another Blitz “expert” on matters pertaining to The Boomer Generation.
We’re so lucky to have you all here to blame us pesky boomers for ruining your prospects.
Did we hurt your feelings by not acknowledging your feelings?
All whilst you continue to attack my generation.
No irony there at all.

Cry me a farken river.
Do you know what we didn’t do when I was younger?
We didn’t blame our parents or grandparents for our problems.
We didn’t grow up with an expectation that we deserved everything.
We grew up knowing that if we wanted something, we had to go out and earn it.
But keep on blaming us if it helps you get through what must be a miserable existence from the way you carry on.
Its not just hard work that gets you ahead now.
It’s privilege (parents assisting/supportive), luck and hard work.
I’m not saying your generation or mine (X) didn’t need this combination, but I look at the younger generation and it feels harder for them. It’s not something I’m proud of.

Go have a whinge with your poor, disadvantaged generation and leave me to my comfortable retirement built on the tears of you all.
