    I dont see the issue, obviously they’ll just pull themselves up by their bootstraps and win the war, it was easy back in their day so it’ll be easy for them now. Kids today are just lazy

    You want to send grandma and grandpa to war? They fought in Korea and Viet Nam, and some of them in the Gulf War. They’re sick of war. And, while some of them are MAGA, they are those who voted for “no new wars” and are now pissed at Trump.

    Bernie is a boomer and so are many of the people who support and voted for him.

    If you want to stop being painted with one brush, be the change you want to see. It’s not a generational war, it’s a fucking class war.

    How about we send the people who support it, and started it–the filthy rich?

    I mean modern weapons are so easy to use that even the elderly can be effective with them. I agree, let’s draft them. More jobs, more houses for real Americans

    I ran into an elderly man at the grocery store this weekend, proudly wearing a crisp new “Trump 2028” baseball cap. Make his dumb ass a front-lines infantryman.

    lol old people hate. Because blaming any other group for the world’s problems is very bad…. It’s as if the boomer generation was obligated to create utopia; not any generation previous or since. Just them. And when the last of them have died off, the youngins will scapegoat whoever is old in that time. So Millennials, you might want to get your excuses ready; you didn’t leave the world a better place for them…
