Bruh they were and still are brainwashed by so much anticommunist propaganda. They had to survive in those material conditions, and if they made it they had to buy into the lie of American Exceptionalism for their prosperity and not the Dollar becoming the worlds reserve currency and propping up European Social Democracy, Dictators, and Kings. They reaped benefits they were actively being kept in the dark about, if they are waking up cause piss is tricking down their face, i will still celebrate them waking up. We need all the people we can to wake up and realize how the elite have stolen from the working class and are only taking more and more as we continue to kill our planet to give them more wealth…

Cognitive dissonance is really strong if you have to question the way you were living your whole life when questioning the current situation. This makes those people far more likely to be easy prey for far-right propaganda than to be waking up, I’m afraid.

Anyone here who comments about how they deserved this fate or how they got what was coming to them needs to grow the fuck up.

There are very, very few people in this world who have done something bad enough to have this kind of condition even be remotely justified. They’re gonna either be on the streets or in basic Medicaid nursing homes for the rest of their lives. Many will get beaten and robbed. Many will probably just commit suicide to avoid the nightmarish conditions. And people here are celebrating this?!

Newsflash, the baby boomer generation are also people who also deserve to have someone give a shit about them. You people are sick.

So, the kids won’t let you move in, you’re running out of options, and you’re here on lemmy telling us how sick we are (after how many years of boomers telling millienials we are the problem) because you’re about to be homeless?

Do you not think that the vitriol against boomers is just another example of getting different groups of people to hate each other so they’re distracted from the real issues?

If it’s not immigrants and minorities, why not get different generations at each others throats. Seems to be working.

It could be. However, I’ve spent my entire life not only being shit on be boomers verbally and mentally, but I’ve been watching them PURPOSEFULLY do everything in their power to destroy this world and it’s inhabitants with every political move they make. I cannot even fathom having sympathy for a group of people so spiteful and greedy and selfish.

In any case, it’s going to overwhelmingly not be reaganites who are going homeless. If someone spent decades shilling for austerity and had it bite them in the ass, that’s one thing, but this is the economic bottom dropping out, so it’s mostly not those people.
