It’s official! I’ve hit peak Boomer fatigue.
I haven’t written about the Boomers in awhile because, let’s face it, regardless of how much I’m fed up with this generation clinging onto power with the desperate grip from whatever strength remains in their arthritic hands- time is on my side.
But I think it’s time collectively for the younger generations to take away the nuclear football and change the codes on the SCIFs. It’s obvious many of these people plan on dying in office and it’s our responsibility to retire them before that happens. We can’t continue on this path anymore.
Past generations have known when it’s time to gracefully step back and hand the reins over to more capable hands but these people have no shame.
The Republic isn’t dying because we’re at the end of an empire. It wasn’t designed to be an empire in the first place. It’s merely bleeding out from the thousand cuts being inflicted on it by this stubborn generation who refuses to believe the world will continue on after they’ve died.
This stubborn generation is killing our country because they can’t accept the fact they’re not immortal and the next generation chooses the future path of the country.
While I still believe Donald Trump and RFK Jr are fit to run for office it’s obvious Joe Biden needs to resign along with EVERYBODY who has conspired to hide his mental decline.
The difference of 12 years between these two debates highlights how far these people have jeopardized the stability of our country and the extent of the elder abuse that’s happening behind closed doors.
Wow … check out the decline.

More importantly it’s time we move on from the Boomers holding government power as a whole. While there’s plenty of mentally fit Boomers (and a few Silent generation) who can contribute to our country, we need to finally hand over ALL power to the next generation.
There’s over 300 million people in the USA and I’m pretty sure we can find enough people under the age of 60 to replace all the aging Boomers.
At this point I think Trump has secured his second term. But please, let him be the last Boomer president. This country has been under the steward of the Boomers since President Clinton was elected 32 years ago. It’s time for the younger generations to suck it up, take off the training wheels, and be responsible for the survival of this country.
Steve Bannon’s message to the MAGA base.

Trump, Bannon, and Navarro can’t save the country by themselves. They shouldn’t be the only ones willing to go to jail for our liberty. This country has become so spoiled we’re no longer willing to fight for our freedoms. We’ve taken the Constitution for granted for too many decades. The time is dawning on us when we’re going to have to overthrow this bloated and out of touch administrative state.
That’s assuming it doesn’t collapse on it’s own from being under the control of a spendthrift congress who’s proven to be less capable of saying “NO” than a horny teenager on prom night.
I’ve been holding onto hope for years that we can have the first peaceful revolution in human history. Which should always be the first option in a country comprised of free people. Sadly, I believe that’s not going to be possible if they imprison Trump before the election.
If they put Trump in jail there won’t be an election because the country will have fallen and we’ll have no choice to step up to fill the void. We can’t cede control of this country to a dementia addled meat puppet and his merry band of commies, drug addicts, and con artists.
The inter-generational transfer of power is on the horizon as this millennium fourth turning wraps up. We’re down to two options; either we elect Trump and get a four year grace period to hand over power to the next generation or they’ll imprison Trump and the country will collapse from the rot within.
By November we’ll have elected our last Boomer president either way.
Not so much boomers. Simply godless soul less puppets for sale to h8ghest bidder. The entire sitting gov of detroit is black and under 50. Detroit is the future of every city. White boomers have nothing to do with it.
Technically both were born before the “Boomer generation”
Trump is a Boomer, born 1946, post WW2. Biden is part of whatever they call those born during the war and before.
Silents
That would make Brandon a Bomber, wouldn’t it? Or, maybe just a Bomb?
Silent generation. But the dates are arbitrary, and while most list 1946, some list 44 or 46. But is there really differences between people born in 44 , 45 or 46? Probably not, these people are often called tweeners.
The years are arbitrarily picked. Trump, Clinton, and GW Bush were all born in 46 and are sometimes referred to as “tweeers”. I am guessing they would have a lot more in common with someone born in 45 than 64.
Preach Anon!!!!!
^^^^BOOM!HEADSHOT!^^^^
Now all her friends are ‘warned’!
Age means nothing. Character does.
Amen to that.
Trump should refuse to cooperate, not attend the “sentencing hearing,” and stay out of NY and all other blue state shit holes. He should tell the spic judge, “Come get me, faggot!”
He should never have participated in any of these sham “cases” and should’ve sold all his blue state buildings and properties long ago so they’d have nothing to seize or hold over his head.
Well said. As a boomer, I agree 100 percent. I am disgusted by what has happened to so many of my generation. If I see another 65 year old man with “tats”, I will puke. Ditto for the self-indulgent assholes who plan to spend every penny they have before they die, leaving nothing for their struggling kids. Yeah, Boomers put us where we are now.
That said, there is a solid core of Boomers who did not go with the flow, who tried to stop the onrushing tide, who did their duty, and served without complaint.
Hopefully, if Trump wins, those few can serve long enough to identify to move ahead the younger folks who deserve it, and teach them what is worthwhile from the “old times”.
There’s plenty of good Boomers out there. This article is solely meant to criticize the cohort of Boomers in their 70’s still fighting over positions of power in government like vampires fighting over a used tampon.
Stephanie,
Yes, there are good Boomers out there. But there are too many that you described all too well in your screed. Sage is definitely one of the good ones and I hope that I am one as well. As an aside, I have said many times that too many in government think they are going to live forever. They need to realize that nobody gets out of this world alive. Keep fighting the good fight.
Here are my observations on boomers.
Rather than see the implications of their cowardice, they justified it as securing their position to provide for their families
They began as fairly moral and disciplined in Christian tradition (as they were taught), but their parents never told them the why of anything, and so they couldn’t pass that on themselves.
Related to the last point, they were raised during the dawn of multiple forms of mass media, and so they just trusted it all, because they began as mostly moral in a secular (pagan) sense.
And so they didn’t even notice their own moral decline as they consumed this media. But, I did. I watched good people in their 20s and 30s turn into degenerates by their 30s or 40s and continue to decline until they reached about 60 or 70s. Then some of them found either God or made peace with themselves as gods themselves. The former are buckling under the temporal consequences of their sin, the latter less so, but finding a certain kind of peace, they are probably never going to find God, and so sail off into their golden retirements right into Hell.
k31, being well-meaning doesn’t keep you from being full of shit at times. Drop the broad brush and step away from it.
The tribe of Abraham has indoctrinated you well, and plays you against your fellow Goyim, based on artificial labels of Jewish contrivance.
There have been the same before the boomer generation and their will be the same from every generation to come as you ought to know…but you need someone or thing to blame.
You go from attacking boomers to now saying there’s plenty of good ones pretty quick there lady.
Speaking strictly demographically the proof is in the pudding though isn’t it ? Those who were given the most seem to have blown it majorly in terms of preserving freedom, in my opinion as a fellow boomer . I put it largely down to the effects that all the easy fake money has had on folks and by extension the general character of the nation since perhaps 71′ when the dollar lost any andall connection to anything tangible .Me ? you would consider me a stupid sucker, and perhaps I am ,because I have worked at hard manual labor like an illegal Mexican migratory worker all my life . But I have not been part of the problem as a result, having created far more value than I ever consumed . thats my two cents anyway as barely a boomer( 63 ) ,” I was the last child , just a punk in the street ” Aerosmith ( I literally was the last of five , parents divorced and so on …)
I would CONSERVATIVELY estimate my “value” to consumption is EASILY 1000-1 positive, easily. When I was “working” , others did so as well, generally over 65 years of work it came out to $25/hr in 1972 dollars, roughly. Yeah….
That’s a very boomer viewpoint. We don’t care about the blame, we want to identify the problems so we can avoid them, or at least teach younger people to avoid them.
The blaming isn’t about ego, like it is with boomers and older genxers. All that corporate branding was to program you to have uber-egos. Gen-x saw the futility of that in the 90s as teenagers. The egos were harder for us to shake, but many of us did.
That’s a very Jewish viewpoint. You have selected from among the mainstream scripts and bow to the mainstream concept of God. A position with no chance of genuine truth nor extrication from Abrahamic global conquest.
She’s just a clueless pandering Karen trying to find her way through life without footing the bill.
That rarely ends well.
There’s always someone else to blame. It’s the American way.
It’s the Jewish way. The mistake is allowing them to write the script. The script from Communism to Christianity, it’s still their mainstream script. Promising to end badly.
Then WHY SHIT on an entire generation of your OWN fucking countrymen?
Guess what, Stephanie? YOU are going to die too! If you’re fucking LUCKY, you might get to become “old”, but with your attitude, I ain’t counting on that.
Perhaps had you read the article, Langley, you would
have read that she was descibing only those in DC clinging
to power, not the whole generation. Or pehaps you did read
it and missed her point completely so you could go off on
another unhinged rant.
Either way, not a good look for your Colonial Farm Road
superiors.
Then she should buy a fucking paint set with more options that the 6 inch house painter and the fuckin’ roller!
And another thing…YOU don’t get to dictate what I fucking read, asshole.
But you didn’t read it. It’s very clear in the comments who didn’t read the article because I never discussed the Boomer generation as a whole. Just those in government shamelessly clinging to power. You also didn’t read the comments either. Because I said the exact same thing.
Maybe you should read some more books to increase your declining attention span and inferior reading comprehension skills. Library cards are still free.
I read all I could stomach. Don’t pretend I don’t know you. I’ve been reading your BS for years. Sadly it hasn’t gotten any better.
Good luck on your Jesus hunt!
But I don’t know you. Not even sure why you’d think I did know you.
I know its late to the conversation but I think it’s productive to point out that with age should come wisdom ,and that used to be a thing . Perhaps we could still benefit from boomers in leadership but it has to be the right kind of boomers / our formula for choosing political leadership is woefully lacking obviously . Somebody like me would make a far better president than anything the ruling establishment would pick for themselves . of course I’m nobody and have skeletons in my closet just like almost anyone else but I believe my point is valid . Old people , who have lived right and had the right values and principles ought to be considered gems of wisdom , but of course perhaps society at large swimming in the cultural stew that it does , doesn’t know how to identify authentic wisdom ? Just sayin, silver hair can be a crown of glory for some whom have figured out how to patiently endure till the end and simultaneously haven’t lost their wonder at the beauty and mystery of the world and our existence in child like fashion . We have bad taste , there are plenty of wise old ones who ,having seen the changing of the seasons their fair share would make fine leaders .
Gratuitous name-calling is a hallmark of the left.
Godammm ,what are ya anyway “Lil miss lil miss lil miss cant be wrong”? Lighten up Francis ?!?
Those boomers are fewer than the 80+ year old silents who are clinging to office. It’s more about the need for term limits for Congress than about any particular generation, though.
Too fucking late SS. You categorized ALL boomers… Chip
Boomers are certainly not alone in enriching themselves in the pursuit of power. There are plenty of hideously corrupt 30 and 40-somethings in congress.
It’s what mainstream media, mainstream academia, mainstream politics does. Play us against one another based on artificial labels. That and pushing ethnic groups with conflicting interests together and watching the fallout. The tribe behind the mainstream enjoys a protected though curiously “persecuted” statis.
Well said, Sage,
As an older boomer, I am with you and could not have said it any better. However, I do fully understand what Stephanie expounded. Unfortunately, I fear there are too many of the younger generation that have been indoctrinated in public schools who do not have the initiative or where-with-all to save the country from what it has become. I certainly hope that I am wrong on about that.
I fear they may be the proverbial fish that don’t know they are wet . What I mean by that is that as barely a boomer 63 I have living memory of a simper and in my opinion better time for America . how can you take something back to something you never had any conception of in other words ? Like folks cant even fathom American healthcare pre HMO( when it was financialized ) let alone conceive of a populace ashamed of taking handouts or how austere the average American household was even as recently as the sixties and seventies when really most people didn’t have shit by today’s standards but we didnt know to feel as though we had been deprived of anything it didn’t matter and its just the way it was , say one telephone, one boob tube , one car , no computer or digital electronics really and so on , I don’t think we are less for having been deprived of all of that crap that most folk today couldn’t conceive living without . A really good example of that is cellphones on construction jobsites , well how the hell did we ever manage to alongget without them ? Quite well actually .I still leave mine in the van and all the young manager types complain because I am not available . Too busy working lol.
I’ve vowed to myself to never be an old, fat white guy.
So far so good.
You transitioned?
Maybe it lost weight. 😉
Shoe polish and diet pills will fix most of that for ya. That ‘old’ thing? You’re on your own there, chief!
Me too.
I’m not fat.
So far, so good.
Boomers were raised by the Silent Generation and I say they and the Greatest Generation let our Christian heritage fall by the wayside, bad examples, collaborators with the tribe.
And then the boomers’ kids went for tolerance of everything in society (be kind) and no discipline for their children.
That was gen x not boomers.
I am no less disgusted with myself and my generation, boomer bought into everything, but we bought into enough to turn us into burnouts and cynics. We are boomer-lite.
The Boomers were raised by the greatest generation of mass murdering drunken useful idiots the world has ever seen.
I give them that.
Proverbs 22:6
I was thinking the other day about all the f’d up “old” assholes from my childhood. Mean, drunk, get off my lawn types. I realized, when I was Five, the WW1 vets were 60, the WW2 vets were 40, the Korea vets were in their 20’s and 30’s and we were just a few years from the elder brothers of my generation being press ganged to Vietnam. Things had already, in the idyllic (supposedly) 50’s, been really, really fucked up for a long time. We Boomers were raised and influenced by at least three generations of PTSD’d folks. Our grandparents were raised by people from the Civil War which was of course the shitshow of all shitshows. The Devil truly rules this world.
My Dad was lucky enough to serve in Korea AND Vietnam. No one needed to ask him what his fucking problem was, and anyone stupid enough to do so FAFO’d HARD!
Why would you consider your dad lucky to serve in Vietnam?
What could possibly be lucky about serving corrupt politicians and defense contractors, Ziobot?
You need to sharpen your sarcasm skill set there, Skippy.
At least in Korea and Vietnam our brave soldiers were fighting Communists and the spread of influence of history’s worst mass murderer in Mao Zedong. It wasn’t their fault they were hung out to dry by Jewish infiltrators of our government, media, and pseudo academia.
Conversely in WWII the “greatest” generation were flimflammed into helping destroy central banking by passing White Nationalism.
In truth there are only 2 kinds of Nationalism. White Nationalism and Zionism. All other nations are propped up by central banking. On the backs of what the Abrahamic tribe, skims, steals, and begs from a quickly dying West.
My Dad was a Master Sergeant/Company 1st Sergeant. He was in from 1945-57. He was a Sergeant for eleven of his twelve years. He was a nice guy, but took no shit. Tank Commander in M-26 Pershings at the end. He had grenade fragments removed when he was 80. No one needed to ask him what his problem was because he didn’t have any fortunately. That doesn’t change the fact that I grew up in a world full of fucked up victims of war with obvious PTSD issues and we just keep doing it. The definition of insanity.
Utopian thinking ,we are not going to eliminate trauma and stress from the human condition , instead we need to understand and develop the skills and tools that give us some level of immunity from ” what happens ” .Its not what happens but how you deal with what happens that is the key . Sorry boss , just speaking my conscience .This stuff is key to understanding so much about the psycho spiritual dynamics that we wrestle with .
And….damn Tom Brokaw for pushing that whole “greatest generation” bullshit, as well.
They were not the Greatest Gen. They were the Most Obedient to their Kike Masters. The jews won WW2.
You don’t want us GenX black-pilled folks in charge…..we will simply not hesitate to blow the whole place up…..We DGAF……..we will probably be the only generation that doesn’t have a POTUS…..Our entire policy can be summed up in a simple phrase….FUCK YOU. LOL
Yep. Lobbied FOR the internet (NCP format) in 1976, to become public domain….GHWBUSH said “Nope”.
Imagine that, the internet 50 years earlier.
Here we are.
I have some “tats”. But mine are from cancer target tats for the ease of those in Radiology.
If I get a tattoo do you promise to puke all over yourself when you see it?
Get it on your face. That’ll make our job a lot easier!
Well, Stephanie sure got the full benefit of our Government School system. I hope you are enjoying watching the 3rd worlding of the USA. Enjoy it, Steph. You will have to live in it. I won’t, tooo old. Pre boomer.
Have fun honey. Oh, and good luck, you will need it.
PS, Brandon is NOT a boomer.
I agree the government needs to go, I’d prefer to see an END to all federal agencies and just a republic of states that choose or choose not to cooperate, with the ONLY united action being border defense.
Problem with the boomers is they’re bribed and blackmailed. Problem with the ‘younger’ generations is don’t know what sex they are much less having any sense en masse.
I’m sure there’s plenty of Gen Xers and older Millennials capable of replacing the elderly boomers who should’ve retired from holding office a decade ago.
Corruption infects every generation. I too prefer some younger blood replacing the elderly boomers, but…they’re just a corruptible as every other generation.
Boomers are too old and out of touch. It’s time for them to go so we can move on from this generation who clinged to power and relevancy for too long. The rest of us are tired of being in their shadow. There’s going to massive problems if there’s not a transfer of power to Gen X and Xennials soon. Our country is dying with the Boomers.
then do something about it, young lady…
Pull up your bootstraps or something. I hate boomers so much.
No doubt you do.
Self reliance is not something you seem to respect
or remotely understand.
Read this and then edit your comment to reflect reality. Clown World is inclusive to all ages, ethnicities and gender confused degenerates.
https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/02/07/the-changing-face-of-congress/
AOC and that Crockett bitch, Omar and Tlaib have really elevated the discourse. “Money grows on trees and we’re so oppressed.”
Fuck you again. I’ll stack up what I know against anyone on the planet. You are out of touch and ignorant as hell… Chip
If Boomers are old and out of touch, what about all those Silent generation people still in Congress?
Old and out of touch can be at any age, some people are with it at 100 and others suffering dementia at fifty. I do agree they should step way, but the lust for power prevents that. Think John McCain, John Lewis an Diane Feinstein all who staid in office until death.
I don’t know how you prevent that other than term limits and Congress is never going to limit their own terms. The other way would be a Constitutional convention, but a lot of state politicians have Federal office hopes or close friends and won’t limit the terms either.
I’m sure there are many that are capable but few of those will want any part of this shit show. Instead we get more narcissistic loons like AOC and immigrants with completely different values.
Yes I am a boomer but I believe in limited government and we definitely need term limits, but none of those that can do it will voluntarily want to get off the gravy train.
I doubt there is any fixing this but be careful what you wish for.
What happened to trusting the plan, Qtard?
Biden is not a boomer, he was born in 1942.
Close enough. He’s on the cusp. His earliest memories (before getting dementia) would’ve been the post-war prosperity. The exact dates don’t matter. The generations are classified by shared experiences. Joe wouldn’t have any memories of the Great Depression or WW2 so he qualifies.
Do you call a guy with 800k a millionaire because…..he’s on the cusp? No!
Don’t get too excited Steph, there are many boomers who could potentially run for president and pee all in your Cheerios.
Close enough. A guy with 800K is close enough to being a millionaire to experience the same lifestyle and tax burden as someone who has exactly a million in their bank account. The generations are grouped based on shared experiences.
Research much?? Swiiiiing- and a miss.
Donnie isn’t a boomer either, FYI. Don’t blame boomers for this shit.
Yes he is. Born 1946.
I stand corrected, I thought he was 80.
Then let’s do blame a boomer for killing 50% of small business and part of the population with those big beautiful shots. I said (a) boomer, that does not convict a entire generation.
The average age of the 118th CONgress is 58. Lots of X’ers and a millennial or two. Steph says God forbid the X’ers start running the place. Oops, don’t look now.
Barry O actually is a boomer and I have never seen you finger pointing blame in his direction. Not that B.O. counts as a president, but where was your ire when the Kenyan was f’ing up this country?
She’s a fat White girl who likes black men.
You don’t get to change definitions to suit YOUR purposes. That ‘s progtard bullcrap regardless of what generation you are part of.
It’s not my definition. That’s how Neil Howe explained how the generations were grouped together.
That’s the only book of theirs I bought, but I still haven’t read it. My priorities have changed. The Bible pretty much negates all significance of politics and culture. It negates worries about the future. It calls us only to repent and believe the Good News.
What is the Good News? That Christ died for the ungodly, that those who believe and trust in Him will have eternal life in a world without sin. He suffered our punishment for us, so that this may be possible: To have the Holy Spirit in us by our baptism, and to have the favor of the Father, though we don’t deserve it.
I am not theological expert, but it seems to me that belief in Jesus Christ and the triune God are not enough to save. Even the demons believe that. Faith is trust in the promise and trust in God’s eternal love.
Romans 5:7-9
King James Version
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Neil Howe ain’t much of an expert. He’s as likely to be wrong as anyone.
Even Admin will tell you he is a pinko. Pinkos have agendas and I guarantee you HE HAS AN AGENDA.
The definitions of when the generations changed over has always been somewhat nebulous. For example, Gen-Xer’s that are around 58 years old (right on the cusp) were sometimes labeled as Boomers depending on who was defining the window. As someone that fell in that cusp, I honestly can’t relate to either generation and have always wondered how I went back and forth from being a “greedy evil Boomer” to a slacker Gen Xer based on who was defining the situation. As Stephanie mentioned, it is based on shared experiences and I think people on the cusp didn’t really share experiences with either group (or maybe we shared with both and it left us confused).
Pretty simple to define the start. End of WW2 and millions of horny testosterone charged guys came home and got busy. Whether VE Day or VJ Day, the children began appearing en masse in 1946. That part is indisputable. The end date would be around one generation or twenty years. There might be a bit of wiggle room for the end but absolutely not the beginning.
Go try and explain to Vox Day that he’s a Boomer because he’s on the cusp.
Let me know how that works out for you.
Yeah. When you’re busy hatin’ the fuck outta people , you ain’t got time to be factual. Crawl back under your rock.
That’s not fair. She got a heck of a good dust up going and that is to be commended. Free exchange of ideas is the goal and Gold Standard.
Oh, please! I fart bigger dustups than this!
GOD BLESS ISRAEL !!!
Get that Jew dick out of your mouth, you pathetic Zionist shill.
It’s a drunk Langley nobody assigned to obscure right side websites to try to flush out some “subversives”.
A pathetic excuse for a human in a pathetic job.
Waste no more time on a dead end job loser.
Biden isn’t going anywhere as the Post headline you included says. Dead body, it is, then. Or maybe they will try to put Trump in jail. His sentencing is July 11.
Old people, particularly old men can be very stubborn.
Things will not end well, I’m afraid. The younger Millennials and the Zoomers will have to fight or become slaves, unfortunately.
If there is division, it is probably this: One group of Jews like having a literal sock puppet in Biden, the other bunch of Jews like to throw some randomness in with their agenda, by employing agents like Trump.
Look for a jew to take the reins. The shabbos cannot betrusted, and will be sacrificed. See Mexico
I would eagerly vote for this guy before Biden
Boomers certainly have their fair share of wrongs. Fortunately they can’t be blamed for allowing the Pride/sexualization of children/denying there are only two gender/…need I go on?…to proliferate. That’s on the Millennials and Gen Z. How will they explain to their children and grandchildren the acceptance of when they promoted that? In time those generations will also be rightfully skewered by their offspring. If that’s the ‘leadership’ they’re bringing to the table….well, they don’t deserve being leaders of the government either.
Or… I’m talking about the NEXT generation. You know that 63 million group of people between the ages of 45-60 called Gen X. Heaven forbid they finally get their turn.
Yes, Gen Xers deserve to be blamed also for allowing what has been done to their progeny. Sadly, EVERY generation sins.
Too true. Of course, GenX kids never learned where to use an apostrophe. Many put one before the final ‘s’ in every plural form noun they type. A petty observation, I know, but I indulge my own twisted sense of humor wherever the opportunity arises.
In twenty years, everything out of a GenXers mouth to someone younger will be based on the premise that everything in the world exists eternally in the year 2004. Nothing changes. Nothing ever has changed. All circumstances for all people are exactly what they experienced in 2004. Social, political, cultural, economic — it will be 2004 forever.
It’s coming Gen X. You, too, will do this.
Boomers simultaneously a) claim that it’s wrong to collectively criticize a generation while b) collectively criticizing multiple generations as clueless, inept, lazy, easily-triggered snowflakes lacking grit.
No we don’t.
Dija just make up that horseshit like you always do or are you just too stupid to have a an origional intelligent thought?
There are only those two choices.
Boomers don’t collectively do anything. I was born in 56, my daughter 78, and I have never criticized her generation. In fact I really like this generation. From the start they have been the invisible generation for some reason. As for the Greatest generation they fought the war, but those that survived where the most selfish generation in history. Think about all the old age and welfare programs started under them,? As for the Silent generation they are still around and in power Biden and about twenty still in Congress, including Pelosi.
Wrong. It was your lot that discarded tried and true social and moral frameworks en masse.
Nope.
Another bald faced lie.
Please post another one.
This is getting amusing as hell watching you make an ass of yourself in public.
How it started: Trust the plan! Trump is running the largest sting operation in history to take down the deep state!
How it’s going: I’m so tired of this! Get rid of these boomers!
😂
Hard to reason with a witling.
Thought provoking read. The desire (and ability) of so many boomers to hang on for so long strikes me as one of the factors that makes this cycle a tad different from prior periods of history.
And as clear as the issue is with Presidents, if that was just it then it might not be a big deal. But all across institutions Gen Xers have basically been told to wait their whole lives. The cumulative impact on psyches of the next generation is going to be very interesting.
“Boomer” is an artificial classification from those who seek to divide and rule.
I do not accept their claims of legitimacy. They do not own me.
OK Boomer! 🙂
Ok, groomer!
OK, Doomer. 😉
It was a joke…..Sheesh. Ya’ll are too touchy, did you see the f’n smiley face?
That could be interpreted as nothing more than your pleasure with yourself for delivering a zinger.
You gotta actually spell it out for the fucking morons.
Those emojis aren’t the time savers we all thought they’d be, are they?
We’d save so much time if we could just eradicate stupidity! Generally speaking, of course. Not directed at you personally.
See what a pain in the ass this shit has become?
I shouldn’t have had to type most of this, but I wanted the little tard, Edward, to be able to follow along.
Hieroglyphics…..human DE-volution
Indeed.
But Admin. you are a Boomer also, so shouldn’t you retire also??? Doesn’t that make you worthless and despicable??? Hypocrite much?!?!?!
Are so so stupid that you actually believe Jim Quinn agrees 100% with every article he posts?
You should probably just fucking leave here. You’ve got no idea what this place is all about.
If you think America is screwed up now, wait until lazy, worthless, latte drinking, Prius driving, I Phone worshipping, technology addicted, woke, worthless college degree getting, responsibility shirking, blame shifting, video game addicted, Pot smoking Millennials and Generation Zeros take the reigns of power!!!!!!! You ain’t seen nothing yet!!!!!!
Their progeny will say the same of them, just like Stephanie is doing now.
Shakespeare did, he worried about the younger generation, and that was quite a few generations ago!
You forgot avocado toast eating,mismatched sock and public pajama wearing.
They’re not going to make it that far……
Funniest post of the thread!.
….and get rid of the dual citizens in gov’t
Amen, Orwell. Those little hats in disguise have just about cleaned us out and pushed us into military and societal suicide.
Orwell has it right.
And Henry Ford……read The International Jew,published by the Dearborn Independent,an internal publication of the Ford Motor Company,from approx.100 years ago…….factual,dispassionate and prescient!
Its not difficult,its a playbook that has been used for literally THOUSANDS of years!
^^^THIS!!!^^^
Biden is NOT a Boomer. The first Boomers were born in 1946, 9 months after the military returned from Europe and the Pacific. Trump is a borderline Boomer.
So when I learned of Kennedy VP pick, I was floored.
It took me day or so to wrap my head around the fact that 8 to 10 years ago my kid was becoming politically alert. After he got finished griping about whatever it was I looked at him and said, “Its your country now”.
Well…Kennedy’s pick drove that home. I’m on board as much as ever.
Gotta know when to fold and let go.
I love my mother, but she is a boomer and I was trying to get a point across about why I don’t want to arm or support something that may be used against me or subsequent generations in the future, and she said “oh well I don’t worry about that, I’ll be dead by then”. I blurted out “that a very boomer mentality”, then she handed me off to dad.
I love my dad, but If he gets a hint of me preaching the Gospel, all of a sudden I am trying to lecture him and the 5th commandment enters his brain with absolutely no sense of irony or self awareness.
I am not trying to pick on my parents, but they are very typical of their generation.

Among the most pathologically narcissistic things that a person can say. At least, any person with progeny.
Not trying to insult your mom. My father has said the same exact thing multiple times. I don’t really speak to him anymore if I can help it.
Boomers ain’t responsible for this shit:
This is so fucking sad. Which generation is responsible for this?! Hint…It ain’t boomers!
Don’t listen w/ sound on. The ‘music’ is just as horrid as what this child did to herself.
It ain’t Boomers? WTF are you babbling about? Which generation started the gay rights movement? What year did the Stonewall Riots happen? Which generation spread the HIV/AIDS epidemic? Which president designated June to be pride month?
The Zionist generation.
There have been fags around literally FOREVER…especially if you count those nasty Fallen Watchers. Sodom or Gomorrah ring any bells, idiot?
I thought you said you READ The Holy Bible?
Apparently I’m not the ONLY one picking and choosing what I read.
The people responsible for that … thing … are her/it’s parents, no one else.
Her parents may have been early GenX, but they may have been late Boomers.
Once you figure out your one true gender, you got it from there… Godspeed ,they/them
She/them
As in “no one wants to she/them titties!”
All ” civil servants” aka pension whores, regardless of age should follow this robots example. The world would be a much better place.
Civil servant robot ‘commits suicide’, deadly plunge under probeWitnesses saw the robot erratically circling before its fall, sparking speculation about the cause.https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/robot-commits-suicide-south-korea
Score one for humanity. Real people in command of their lives in the (real) world. Bring an END to artificial everything.
America FOR Americans
End The Fed
Shoot A Commie
Time is not on anyone’s side. Also, its not all Boomers, its the socialisit/powerist Boomers and the youngsters they have indoctrinated that are killing our country.
LOL the Boomers haven’t even hit the heights of real power in Congress. Here is a list of the Silent Generation still in power.
The Silent generation is generally defined as people born from 1928 to 1945.
1. Senator Dianne Feinstein, Democrat of California, 90 (recently deceased)
2. Senator Charles E. Grassley, Republican of Iowa, 89
3. Representative Grace F. Napolitano, Democrat of California, 86 (retiring)
4. Representative Bill Pascrell Jr., Democrat of New Jersey, 86
5. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, Democrat of the District of Columbia, 86
6. Representative Harold Rogers, Republican of Kentucky, 85
7. Representative Maxine Waters, Democrat of California, 85
8. Representative Steny H. Hoyer, Democrat of Maryland, 84
9. Representative Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California, 83
10. Representative James E. Clyburn, Democrat of South Carolina, 83
11. Representative Danny K. Davis, Democrat of Illinois, 82
12. Senator Bernie Sanders, independent of Vermont, 82
13. Representative John Carter, Republican of Texas, 81
14. Senator Mitch McConnell, Republican of Kentucky, 81
15. Representative Frederica S. Wilson, Democrat of Florida, 80
16. Representative Anna G. Eshoo, Democrat of California, 80
17. Representative Kay Granger, Republican of Texas, 80
18. Representative Rosa DeLauro, Democrat of Connecticut, 80
19. Senator Jim Risch, Republican of Idaho, 80
20. Representative Virginia Foxx, Republican of North Carolina, 80
Even Bill Clinton, GW Bush and Donald Trump are more ‘tweeners’ than boomers, all born in 1946, only one year into when the baby boom started, and much more likely to identify with the Silent Generation. Just a couple of other Congressional Power Brokers that recently left or died – Harry Reid born December 2, 1939 and John Lewis February 21, 1940.
Talk about hanging on to long!!!
The only real Boomer was O’bummer born on August 4, 1961.
Yet everything is the Boomers fault!
Yeah the odds are quite good there’s another boomer prez or even two left in the power structure in the literal definition of generations. I mean, somebody born in 1960 will ‘only’ be 72 in 2032. I think what’s interesting is how instead of questioning authority (including their parents) many* of the boomers went along and endorsed the authoritarian assault on Constitutional government. Kennedy? Just Say No? Militarized police? UN system? Meh, screw the grandkids, we’ve got cheap housing and stocks to ride through the most comfortable era of human material prosperity ever.
*TBPers excluded of course. Y’all are the exception that proves the rule. Fourth Turnings and other cyclical themes are about averages and commonalities across large groups of people. Of course boomers aren’t directly responsible for the silents that have clung to power. What they are responsible for, in aggregate, is siding with the central planners rather than making fun of them. Busybody boomers have been all over society meddling with Xers and Millennials instead of pushing back against their own parents.
The trouble with that description of boomers neglects to notice how boomers are the most committed of grandparents when it comes fighting to leave their grandbabies an inheritance. I don’t personally know any boomers who behave the way you describe.
I suspect that what you describe as “going along” with the shit that has been inflicted upon us is based on our survival of all of that crap without ever approving of it.
Those crazy boomers wrecking our nation……reeee

Don’t make the boomers hate you.
Thinking you need your meds.
Here is a Millennial to applaud:
Out of all the topics out there you choose this. Time to Examine your programming. Next topic: fat people.
I’m thinking she’s got daddy issues to work out. This was her “therapy”.
It ain’t goin’ so well!
Term limits is the solution, not age. Limit should be two and your through.
Exactly, Booger.
Absolutely!!
Write in Thomas Massie 2024
You think Congress will limit their own terms? LOL! Amof ost everyone that ran on that changed their mind once elected.
And what do you think the chances of a constitutional convention are? Zero. Besides why would those state politicians with their eyes on a federal position limit their future opportunities?
Should have been almost
So…you’re OK with a five year old POTUS?
There is a minimum.age limit on the president, but no upper age limit.
There won’t be an election in November.
Gotta tell ya I’m gettin’ pretty damned sick of you stupid fuckers hating on entire groups of people just because you found a bad one.
Say you’re retarded and evil without saying “I’m retarded and evil”.
That’s all I hear any more…”I hate XYZ…I’m a retard!”
You would think that a precious little snowflake like yourself would KNOW that people are as unique as snowflakes.
Stop stickin’ square pegs in round holes FFS.
OK, Scrote. Time for your nap. STFU and toddle off, now.
Fuck off Edward. It’s time for your diaper change.
Langley, if you think any of here care what you think,
you need to go on yet another unhinged rant and prove
yet again how incosequential you are in every way, not only to us,
but your evil Colonial Farm Road oberfuhrers.
LOLOLLLL!
My parents were born about a year BEFORE Pearl Harbor-so, I dunno WTF we’re supposed to be called….
Survivors. See? It ain’t hard!
And nothing dishonorable in any of that.
What’s dishonorable is making up words to hide the fact you’re ashamed of the thoughts in your own head but refuse to give them up.
That’s Satan’s game…and it’s what they want to force on all of us.
Simply decline to participate and they go the fuck away…eventually. Possibly under mysterious circumstances.
It is when you are born not your parents so you question makes you stupid.
Interesting to see who will the US’ version of Gorbachev.
What’s Yankee Doodle Dandy for Perestroika, by the way?
“BOHICA”
Navarro was the one who pushed for release of the shots and spending a trillion we did not have. Bannon left early, dont trust him. Trump still thinks he saved the world and did nothing to drain the swamp his first time there. i am a boomer and not voting for either.
Navarro secured 600 million doses of HCQ to distribute but Fauci et al whoring for Big Pharma and NWO, WEF et al got him blocked. He was right about almost everything early on.
The IQ of this writer is embarrassingly low.
biden is not a boomer.
Biden is of the Silent Generation.
I’m 62 and technically a boomer. That ain’t too far gone. Fuck your boomer fatigue.
Sorry, Steph, but you’re wrong. Plenty of boomers are middle aged (middle age maturity isn’t a bad thing, either), and many, if not most of the current political crop of your preferred generations are immature and not too bright. The GGs were the generation most guilty of staying in office well into their dotage, and the ones currently refusing to step down are Silents.
how do the jews fit into this equation?
Same as everyone else, on the year they were born.
When did TBP start featuring this type of lightweight?
Where are the people looking to talk about Thomas Massie’s healthy 51-year-old wife dropping dead after his Tucker interview exposed AIPAC in congress?
TBP has gone downhill in a big way. Junk and propaganda.
Then leave, no one forces you to come here. No one needs your whining.
Admin does as good a job as ever, giving many sides to stories. You are whining about the comments and that is called free speech. If you want censorship try liberal sites
Put yer big boy pants on and stop yer whining.
Well I spoke too soon. 😂
Unless I’m somehow mistake, I was under the impression that Admin’s mission for TBP was to allow for all and many different thoughts to be heard — real freedom of speech as it were.
.
Yes … you are correct that there exist a great number of important topics we should all be discussing today.
If You object to what you view as a “lightweight” commentator, please feel free to regale and enlighten us with an article of your own. We’ll all be waiting with bated breath and great expectations.
I have several articles out, under different names. Doubt seriously that they would make it here for different reasons. Still, doesnt change the fact that this little girl just keeps harping on the same thing, and it aint the right thing.
It IS indeed the moderator/owners prerogative and right to print whatever he wishes; I believe the point[s] that are being made is that we, the audience have become spoiled to high quality prose from basically an intelligent, realistic and “true Right” – yes, I know the whole left/right paradigm is inaccurate, but lets use it for now – perspective. This little girl and the newest millennial scribbler are not what we expect or appreciate.
LOL ! ! !
You can’t talk about us that way , now , pull yourselves up by your bootstraps !
Old economy Steve memes.
I built my second home in an executive neighborhood at age 26 with NO financial help from anyone, but what do I know?? BTW, the interest rate was 10 3/8 %.
We’re all very proud of you. Everything is the same. The world is locked in the year 1981. Nothing ever changes. You walked 10 miles to school in 4 feet of snow uphill bothways.
Way to make Boomers sound even more Bomertarded than ever.
You are a breathing meme.
Oh, really? How did you get your first home?
I built it with $2000 down that we saved. No help from anyone. Lived there 1 1/2 years and sold it in a hot market to an investor for 15k more than I built it. I only paid $31,500 for it to begin with.
That’s how boomers get shit done, and it was a worse economic downturn than now in many ways. Downturns are opportunity if you know how to take advantage. Try it sometime.
BTW, 2k was hard to come by in your early twenties back in the day. I’ve never asked for help or whined that times are tough. I was too busy working and planning.
None of the characteristics of any president matter in the least.
They are media figureheads.
Puppets who decide nothing of importance.
Been that way since Wilson, who with the passage of the central bank (he was blackmailed), admitted that he destroyed his country.
You mean like handing things over to the generation that created things like “safe spaces” for their kids, trophies for everyone and won’t let their kids play outside by themselves? The same generation that created things like DEI?
No thanks. Maybe we can skip to the next one.
You mean the generation who created those safe space because they were traumatized by the boomers who raised them?
Traumatized? You and your ilk are traumatized? Ha!
You, nor your people, seem stable enough to run a country.
I’m not a Gen Xer.
Millennial?
Who’s kids are they anyway ?You know what the Bible says about “raising a child up in the way they should go and they will not depart from it “I consider my dysfunctional childhood a blessing in the fullness of time . Its not what happens but how you process what happens that matters .
“traumatized” … HAhaHahahaha… now that’s rich! Sure, there were probably some who were abused [traumatized] throughout their childhood, just as every generation has witnessed, but by and large, overall, and speaking holistically, your generation has been pampered, catered to and coddled for its entire life, demanding everything be handed to them in an instance rather than working for years like so many of us had to do before ever reaching relative comfort in our lives.
The problem with people such as Yourself is you want instant gratification, and you don’t care that it might inconvenience or harm those it places the greatest burden upon.
The problem is that you and your ilk look to longingly at Government for solutions and a fix to your life, rather than making those solutions for yourselves, puling yourselves up by your bootstraps to be independent adults and putting forth your best effort to make something worthwhile with your life.
Right now, we see whiny-ass entitled “students” who are crying over the massive amount of student loans the asked to receive and assured payment on by way of a contract. And once again, they’ve received privileged treatment — when a good portion of them already come from wealthy families and are attending Ivy League universities — as Joe Biden has wiped the slate clean for many of them with a $153 billion bailout to be borne by the U.S. taxpayer, many of whom never could afford to go to college and found other ways to make their livings, often through manual labor or semi-skilled and skilled trades they learned on their own and along the way.
Your generation is always looking to blame someone else rather than taking personal responsibility for yourselves and your own choices you’ve made along the way.
“traumatized” … you haven’t ever seen real hard times … traumatized my ass … HahaHAhahahahaha
I wish you could have walked a mile in my shoes. You’d have probably killed yourself by the time you were seventeen.
Check. Everyone gets a trophy. There are no losers. Good points and how about “acceptance”, like same sex marriages and such? Wonder who is to blame for that abomination?
Chief Justice John “Turncoat” Roberts, maybe [?] …
What a rant! As if the problems we face as a country can be summed up as an age or generational issue.
The issue is as Thomas Sowell puts it is that people are all fatally flawed and as such any institution/program/system will be as well,
Our founders knew this and created this republic within the context of it being governed by a Christian morality to guide and restrain it’s members of government as well as the populace.
The farther we stray from this truth the worse it’s going to get. As of right now our country (government and people) have become unrestrained and ungovernable. Destruction and tyranny will follow in short order if this path is not corrected.
One has only to study the history of past cultures/civilizations to understand what the future will be for us. The dumpster of history is full of examples of societies that fell into this same moral abyss
It’s official! I’ve hit peak Stephanie Shepard fatigue.
Wait about a year from now until your next shitpost so I can recover.
It’s taken 45 years, but here it is!
All the anons whining about Steph’s article should write their own if they think they can do better, and get a handle so we can tell you apart you bunch of cowards. Particularly the ones who are calling it low IQ. I want to see an article from them so they can let their “high IQs” shine through.
Sheesh, you all make me sick. Go whine somewhere else.
Stop whining.
Ball gags for everybody…STAT!
Yes, stop yer whining. And toughen up. At least Steph can take it. This is a free speech site. Don’t be bossing others around and telling them what to do. Just like a woman..
Hormonal today?
Steph’s a click-baiter, moron. She is here only for the activity she generates. She knows it and Admin knows it. Congrats, you just added to the hits! Chill out grandma.
Here you go! Clicky-clicky-clicky!

Have you ever had an article get over 200 hits? The girl knows what she’s doing.
I’m not so certain the number of “hits” is indicative of anyone’s intelligence or lack thereof. My last article at TBP received over 400 hits, but I’m guessing it hinges more on the dynamics between those posting comments than on what any one particular article posits for their review and scrutiny — and not so much on what is actually written in any one specific article.
Posters on my articles often get far from the actual issue and context of them and stray off on tangents on everything from religion and Jew hatred to whether or not voting is worthwhile.
The initial topic might get the conversation started, but I don’t believe the number of hits actually has much to do with any particular author “[knowing] what [they are] doing.”
I haven’t kept track of how many hits Mary Christine’s articles receive, but she very often writes some extremely important and outstanding noteworthy pieces, in my estimation, that reveal an intelligent lady, regardless of how many hits they receive.
If an absurd article, by the account of numerous experts, should receive an incredibly large number of positive hits would that then suggest that those who responded were somehow mentally deficient? Just curious …..
Good god you missed point entirely!
No … I get it. Steph’s piece generated a lot of hits and a large number of Anons have called it a “low IQ piece”, which Mary Christine as highlighted.
She hasn’t said she favors silencing anyone for those who cry “this is a free speech site”, only that if some think Steph’s piece is so bad, they might want to give it a go with one of their own — perhaps to find it isn’t always so easy as one might think to hit the right chord with the readers. And Mary Christine is right.
I only added that the number of hits isn’t really indicative of the intelligence of any one particular author, or the worth of any one piece, since the commentors at this site are notorious for straying far and away off topic. … just sayin’ …
This is the response I always get when posting. I could write the most thought provoking and agreeable article that’s ever been posted on TBP and I’d still get this reaction.
You flatter yourself.
Lol! No kidding. You never know what direction the comments will take.
Yes, I believe the most I got was 500 and a lot of it was not too nice. That’s what happens when you have the guts to put yourself out there.
Or when what you write is stupid. Stop acting like you’re brave. You’re just an idiot who thinks anyone cares what you have to say. Babble on.
This is a free speech site, idiot! Go away if you can’t handle it.
Waiting for your article … unless you’re one of the whiners Mary Christine is talking about. It didn’t sound like she’s trying to silence you — she only suggested she really didn’t want to hear from the whiners.
That doesn’t mean Y’all can’t keep on whining if you wish to do so.
Carry on and let your conscience be your guide.
We’re waiting for you to begin writing something meaningful too. Some of us don’t need 2 or 3 pages of blather and self congratulation to make a point. Points which you seldom or never make for all your going on and on.
HAhaHahahahahaha … my articles are NEVER self-congratulatory, since I never attempt to draw focus from the main premise and the issue to myself. Any focus on me always seems to come by way of ignorant comments from folks like you who seem intent on making me the focus, as if I alone am somehow responsible for all their problems and the problems of America.
My articles are always pointed and purpose driven, filled with facts and evidence, if lengthy. I can’t help that you are so obtuse and mentally debilitated to the point that you cannot see the points I always state quite clearly. The failure lies in your inability to comprehend and think cogently, not in my ability to articulate my point.
With Idiots like you voting, it’s no damned wonder the country is going to hell in a hand basket. Is this point clear enough for You, Waldo?
Second point … FUCK YOU … HAhaHahahahahaha …. How’s that for concise, meaningful and clear …. or do You require further explanation?
Don’t blame me — or others for that matter — because you are too mentally weak, deficient and LAZY to read a rather lengthy essay.
My guess … you really must be quite the failure in real life, so you take whatever pleasure you can find in trolling websites making anonymous comments, trying to fill the void in your worthless life with your own false sense of self-worth, playing the “big man” … poor little man that you are.
Two or three pages overwhelms your brain … that right there says it all. And like I said, if you can’t find meaning in my pieces, it’s because you can’t properly comprehend what you read; plenty of other people assure me each time of the worth of what I write.
Or perhaps it’s just your own preconceived notions that prevents you from seeing anything of worth in them, as you remain comfortable in your own narrow-minded world and refusing to hear any real expression of the truth.
btw … since you hold yourself up to be the great final arbiter of what constitutes good writing, as if you are some amazing analyst, please give us your name and some of your own publications, so that we may place them under scrutiny and critique them. Or have you ever put yourself out there to write even one article?
C’mon pin-head. Please astound us with one of your own “bright-boy” articles full of profound wisdom that will leave us all begging for more.
We’ll be waiting … probably forever, unless I miss my bet.
You posted four responses to one comment.
Talk about getting triggered.
😂
HAHAhaHahahaHAha … NO … not “triggered” … just wanted to be thorough so You wouldn’t be confused.
You still haven’t answered the question. Where is your article?
Deflect much, do you? What are you afraid of “bright-boy”?
Plus … I didn’t want to write a response that might be too long for you, since you’ve already admitted you have difficulty reading more than a few lines at a time.
And still, I will ask again … what have you written? Let’s see it. Let us review it, unless you are not confident in what you yourself may have written on any particular day.
OK, so, is voting just a stupid waste of time and mental energy.
Who are you, the big tech watch dog?
