Boomers are confused by their kids' preferences for comic books, young-adult novels, and other trappings of a Millennial childhood. But they forget the nostalgia boom of their own past, and how it resonates today.
I read this article and was curious about people's thoughts.
Some of it has been on my mind for a while, and I believe that many boomers vote the way they do mostly because they just miss being a kid. Public transportation bad, because they grew up on cars. The whole idea of not being able to buy a house or get a job is incomprehensible to them because the odds were more in the individual's favor rather than porky. So they grew to like porky more, alongside being bombarded with a lot of cold war/huac propaganda.
