“I think that harping on generational disparities is not only incredibly ignorant, but also totally counterproductive in the sense that each generation’s struggles are an opportunity to grow instead of displacing blame on one’s predecessors like idiots” …nobody but me? Oh, okay.

[@yungfruitsalad1401]

“Ok Boomer” started as a joking rebuttal to older generations shutting down the voices of the younger generations because of their age. The fact the boomers (or just old people in general) can’t understand that just adds fuel to the flame. Edit: I am aware of what is representes to some people but why are we acting as if “ok boomer” is something used in real life? Ageist mentalities exist and have existed long before ok boomer. Yeah ageist people could use it but most people on the internet which is where it is almost always used is as a joke.

couldn't have said this better myself!

Eloquently stated but missing one big aspect of context. You can't make a statement, expect someone to understand your subjective meaning and never actually explain it to them because you've completely dismissed their perspective due to their age. Apply this comment however you like. Understanding comes from communication not just making a statement you thought was funny. Voices have been shut down from all sides.

@Tell Dalzonthank you. Context is important with everything in life. The quip "OK Boomer" was certainly meant as a joke but simultaneously disrespectful to some when they realise it's also used as a way of dismissing an older generation. My grandparents where from the Great Generation, born in the early 1900's. My parents as well as my generation, Gen X would never conceive of saying something like that to them. We had major generational differences as well. I would add culture plays a part in this too. Respect and care of older generations was once important in America. That's no longer the case. But for those of us from immigrant families it still matters quite a bit. I for one welcome the perspective of my elders and I'm in my 50's.

[@thadiussean9133]

stop treating people as groups and as individuals. just because an older person "disrespected" another person of your age, doesn't mean you have to be disrespectful to other older people .

[@KizaWittaker]

Not true. The “ok boomer” started by the younger generations as an insult to people who hold values that are typically viewed as traditional

Yes!! I really appreciated how he obviously respected everyone.

[@nikvlai9730]

I really wish they brought in younger gen z’ers, since we/they (the teenagers) are more of the ones making ok boomer jokes. I haven’t seen many people in their twenties on tik tok and making jokes like that

[@HoorayBagels]

I think they didn't do it because those would be minors.

[@officialname9817]

It’d weird having teens going up against adults...

[@jinglebellcock]

YES

[@theodorafilippidis5419]

ikr i wish the gen z´ers would´ve been sixteen, eighteen and twenty or at least smthng like that since the ages twenty and twenty one are closer to being a very young millenial

[@traewatkins931]

Im a member of Gen X with a son who turns 21 this year ... I have heard boomer out of his and his friends mouths as well as others of that age, most of these are not making jokes however.

[@ahhhhhh124]

Iv come to realize that my generation has to be open to taking critizizum from the older generations instead of completely blocking it all out.
