Neither was I, but I do dislike being told how I feel by someone because I happen to disagree with them.
common false consciousness that harms organising that it is in fact boomers and not capitalists to blame which your arguments are at the very least adjacent to
Dismissing or even insulting people for feeling trampled under capitalism with "actually" statements and telling them their anger is invalid is poisonous to agitation and organization efforts. I could say I am concerned about that in turn.
Let people be upset when assholes, including boomer assholes, tell them that they deserve to be poor and to suffer. The anger is legitimate if it is directed toward people posting trash like in the OP's link.
I said you seem angry I apologise if I misinterpreted your tone
You are angry at the wrong people and that is poisonous to solidarity it is legitimate anger at those people specifically but it is also important to recognise that those people are just a bunch of random assholes who cannot meaningfully be said to speak on behalf of anyone else
I said you seem angry I apologise if I misinterpreted your tone
You are angry
just a bunch of random assholes
They are not entirely random. They are prior beneficiaries of capitalism that are in higher economic rungs, and because they had better opportunities when they were younger than those that came after them when reaching the same age, they are now useful tools to capitalists to dunk on the rest of us, and anger toward that is legitimate.
I from here assumed you were referng to yourself as a part of them and thus did consider your feelings to be anger
I am tired and after this comment will disengage
someday those wealthy boomers will die leaving their wealth to their children thus making millenials the wealthiest generation and you and I won't be a penny richer for it
