The generation war, the political war is just to distract us from the fact we are all under assault by a class war from the super rich. If we fight each other, we can’t fight the rich.
Blame it on the billionaires, not other generations.
we are all under assault by a class war from the super rich
It isn’t strictly from the super rich. There’s layers to the class conflict. It’s like an onion.
You have a large and entrenched class of pensioners who do actively resist any form of liberal economic reforms. You have an incredibly lucrative tech sector that rent-seeks off the political paranoia of the internet age. You have a bloated leviathan of police state, upon which tens of thousands of parasitic Kandy Krush Kops subsist. You have legions of ex-military mercenaries, security guards, consultants, D-list celebrity personalities, and bouncers. Then you’ve got sheriff’s offices and prison companies and home security sellers and media propagandists and outright scammers, all drawing their incomes off a social fear of the underclass.
Plutocracy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. A sizable chunk of the consumer economy is predicated on the process of violently suppressing the tier of labor below your own. We are not all under assault. Many of us are doing the assaulting.

It’s still a class war. Not a generational war.
Pensions change class alignment. Especially when those pensions are predicated on a perpetually increasingly equities market.
not when those generations actively support the bullshit by being stubborn and ignorant
They still aren’t your enemy. At worst, they are a burden.
lol when they do it over and over and over again
