Why do boomers get the blame for the social changes of the 1960s? Your average boomer graduated high school around 1970, even then most people do not have immense political and cultural power in their late teenage years. The civil rights movement started in the 1950s, predominantly by people in their 20s to 40s (Silent Gens and G.I. Gens), the Beatles were Silent Gen, the Beach Boys were Silent Gen, the movie Easy Rider? Made by a Silent Gen with Silent Gen actors. Timothy Leary and Betty Friedan were G.I. Gen. Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, R. Crumb, Andy Warhol, Grateful Dead, John Wayne Gacy, Janis Joplin, Charles Manson, Sharon Tate, all Silent Gen.

For the unwashed masses, boomer is not a specific generation of people but just a synonym for "old" or "old person".

I think it comes down to socialists trying to blame boomers for the prosperity they had, which is typical jewish/socialist thinking. Thanks to the antibodies of the US however all this produces is a generic "they had it better" "ageism" rhetoric and not the full blown "we must dismantle the boomer power structures" that socialism preaches

Normies blame boomers for the deregulatory era of the 1980s and the War on Drugs from my experience. /pol/ only blames boomers for the leftist movements, and that's because of what >>14917609 said, it's a catch-all term for "person older than me"

Retard. Baby Boom began in 1946.

Anyway, the answer to your question is that they allowed it to happen without lifting a finger to stop it. They, as people alive at some point in the fledgling years of social change, do not fit in with the gay acceptance and glorification of black culture that we see in of todays society.

 

This means that in spite of openly DETESTING what has become of their nation, they ultimately did not RESIST such changes. They complain about muh kids these days but disregard the past as a figment of their lives of which the consequences existed only in a vacuum and had no effect on future generations.



Also this meme that the 1960s were some dark age when liberals ass raped your trad wives and ate white babies needs to fucking end. The 1950s had already begun to introduce many aspects of social life that carried over into the following decades as a form of early stage decay. The 70s wouldn't have been so bad without the excess of the 60s and the 60s wouldn't have been so degenerate if not for the ticking timebomb that 1950s geopolitics were built and so on and so forth.

The retards on /pol/ screeching about boomers are brown and not anglo, their entire history revolves around coveting what other people have but they try to break their programming
