No argument from me on any of that Undustrial.

The idea that the problems with the world lie squarely on the shoulders of any generation is false. As I point out, much of it is media fueled propaganda that leads to the condemnation of the entire generation by later generations. Unfortunately for those that didn't live through it and only understand the generation through mass media stories and images, that becomes the reality of that generation.

The media propaganda surrounding the Boomers has long leaned toward the self-congratulatory. Now the animosity created by that propaganda has spawned the media message of "The Baby Boomers ruined the world". Google that and you get half a million results.

The pitting of generations against one another has been a function of the media for decades.

Just add it to the long list of ways we are divided and conquered.
