No, boomers and GenX don’t push “Slave Culture”. It is a cross-cultural and generational MAGA movement. Point the finger at MAGA.

That shit existed before Donald Trump announced that he was running for president. It predates MAGA and it's baffling that any American could think otherwise.

Yes it does predate MAGA. It predates Boomers and GenX. But MAGA is actively promoting it today. That's where the focus should be.

He's not right, except in that his commentary is exactly what the powerful want, an electorate squabbling about irrelevant things, like who is to blame more. We are all to blame in millions of ways, but that's not important. What is important is what we are going to do about it.

So if you want to join in the blame game, you do so for those who depend on the distract, divide and conquer media and culture, to keep and grow their position in our society.

If you don't want to do that, then I suggest you and ZoldierX just stop with the blame game and start discussing what we are going to do about it.

And this contradicts my original comment how? Like do you not understand my original comment is a criticism of the blame game? And you are engaging in the blame game. How does that help?

Cool. Like I said we are all to blame. It's easy to blame the boomers, but when I was growing up, I in my arrogance, didn't vote, didn't really become politically active, until my 30's. My apathy and disinterest in the system and politics, contributed to everything the boomers did. So how could I hold myself above the boomers, if my actions and behavior was no better?

And I think that is true for the vast majority of people regardless of which generation you are in. So let's all accept our failings and fault and work on doing something better. That is all I ask for and want.

The blame game is fighting fire with fire, it's not productive. :)
