GenX has never held any type of power, nor will they ever - not political, not economic, not financial. The Boomers were always like “Wait your turn”, but they never bothered turning anything over regardless of what we fought for, or how hard.
And now the Millennials have come up on the other side. And I’m just so tired of fighting to make things happen, or even just to try to preserve things, that that’s okay. I did what I could to make things better, and I’m happy for a less weary cohort to take over.
Only war is the class war, but as long as there are those who want to forgo that for a culture war we have to fight on that front as well. Fucking capitalists.

I have fought for over three decades. Never got anywhere. The more effort I put in, the less I eventually got back.
I’m out. Throwing in the towel. Not fighting more unwinnable battles only to then be slandered by the very people you fought to protect.
It’s one big free for all since we lower class types seem to be fundamentally incapable of organising.

So, the new Silent Generation (which only got its first and only president in 2021)
