The Generation...Gap?

If there’s one thing I’ve noticed over the last few years, it has been the way that “Boomers” get blamed for everything wrong in the world today. I’ll admit it… I’m easily triggered by this. Oh, I don’t lose sleep over it. I get frustrated by it. You see, I am a so-called “Boomer”. I was brought up in a time where our elders were respected, listened to, and admired regardless of their mistakes. I was taught that we can learn from those who are older than we are. That everyone of almost any age can have wisdom to an extent, but that our elders have more wisdom because they have actually lived through things that we had yet to experience.

This “Boomer blame” always gets me thinking about what I’ve seen and lived through in my life. Yes, I went along to get along at times during my history on this earth, but I’ve always been screaming “liberty!” since I was a rebellious teenager. I have always had that “gut instinct” to call out things that I knew were wrong. Did I do anything about it? Actually, yes. I’ve protested. I’ve spoken at large gatherings of people. I’ve written countless letters to politicians, companies, and organizations. I’ve made thousands of phone calls. I’ve withdrawn my money from big banks and placed it in small independent banks. I’ve stopped buying things from companies that are part of disgusting agendas or practices. I’ve actually done quite a lot. And, you know what? So have many other “Boomers” that I know.

So, where am I going with this? Well, hopefully I’m going to put together a coherent post that shows that every generation has its problems. That it’s impossible to point at one generation and blame them for everything. Blaming our elders for everything wrong in the world is just another way that the “powers-that-should-not-be” keep us divided. These monsters know that if we all started listening to one another, attempting to understand one another, and learning from one another it would make them (the powers) obsolete. And they can’t have that, can they? Blaming someone else for everything is cowardly and makes us feel like we are the “victim”. “If only that Boomer would have said no to (fill in the blank) I would have such a great life!” That’s impossible. Yes, someone else’s decision can affect our lives, but it’s how we deal with it that matters. Do we overcome the consequences of someone else’s mistake or do we just cry, “woe is me” and wallow in self-pity and misery and think “nothing can change now”?

Every generation has had its ups and downs and guess what? There’s been an agenda behind the scenes through all generations. It would take days (possibly months) to do the research to dig up all of the “behind the scenes” garbage that has been going on in governments, giant corporations, and agencies since the ink dried on the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. These agendas are real. They are pushed on us by the media and government-run schools (propaganda centers). They are shoved down our throats by pop culture and the “entertainment” industry. Yes, even the so-called adult “entertainment” industry plays a part in the vast web of agendas going on behind the scenes to help placate people. Make them lazy. Divide them. Conquer them. Demoralize them.

Below I’ll do my best to list the generations and some of the “good and bad” that happened during those generations. People growing up in their time always try to do the best they can. Most of the time, people just want to do “the right thing” and are fooled into doing things because it’s for “the common good”. In today’s “state of emergency”—which has been the permanent operating mode since WWII—people are tricked into doing things they normally would never do. They vote for things and accept things without thinking of the long-term consequences.

• The G.I. Generation (1900–1924): President McKinley assassinated, Ford Motor Company formed, Department of Commerce and Labor created, Panama Canal Zone acquired, Pure Food and Drug Act and Meat Inspection Act, FBI established. These are just a few of the things that happened during my Grandmother’s childhood. Look at the things that were created that have led to where we are now! Some good, some bad. But mostly bad.

• The Silent Generation (1925–1945): Charles Lindbergh flies non-stop from New York to Paris, Wall Street Crashes, The Communist Party of Vietnam is founded, Hitler is put into power, President Franklin Roosevelt takes advantage of the depression to launch his “New Deal” (raw deal), World War II rages, Pearl Harbor, World War II ends, The United Nations is established. Are we seeing a trend? Things that the people had no control over happened and, of course, affected the generation to come.

• The Baby Boomers (1946–1964): The CIA is established, NATO is established, Korean War, Vietnam War, Segregation in schools declared unconstitutional, U.S. severs diplomatic relations with Cuba, MLK delivers “I Have a Dream,” the “Cold War” rages and children are taught to do Nuclear War drills (similar to the “mask” drills of 2020), Hatred for Russia is taught and promoted throughout this timeline as well. Just like the generations before, these things happened beyond our control and affect all of us to this day.

• Generation X (1965–1979): President Johnson proposes his “Great Society” program, MLK is “silenced,” The voting age is lowered to 18, Richard Nixon elected, Abortion on demand “legalized,” Nixon is impeached and resigns, Jimmy Carter elected, Three Mile Island nuclear disaster, Diplomatic ties started with Communist China (but not with Cuba, 80 miles away?). The rain falls on the just and the unjust in every generation.

• The Millennials (1980–Late 1990s): Ronald Reagan elected, Space shuttle Challenger explodes, Libya bombed, Iran-Contra (arms for hostages) revealed, Reagan signs the INF treaty, George H.W. Bush elected, Bush promises “no new taxes,” Bush starts the precedent for “bailing out” massive corporations by “bailing out” savings and loans, U.S. invades Panama for the “war on some drugs,” U.S. invades Kuwait for the first “Gulf War,” Bill Clinton elected. With every generation, there is more and more war and violence.

• Generation Z (Late 1990s–2010s): TWA Flight 800 explodes, Khobar Towers bombed, Clinton reelected, Global economic “crisis” ensues, The “Y2K” computer “bug” scam is pushed by media and government, USS Cole bombed, 9/11 “happens” and the U.S. declares an “emergency” (again) and starts the “war on terror,” Anthrax “attacks,” The “Patriot Act” is magically written and “passed” in days, The “Department of Homeland Security” and the TSA are formed. And I could go on and on and on...

• The Modern Era (2020–Present): All Living Generations Affected: The normalization of permanent state-of-emergency powers, the systematic destruction of small business, and the rise of the censorship-industrial complex. We have endured an unprecedented assault on bodily autonomy and health freedom, weaponized to turn citizen against citizen. Simultaneously, they have dragged us into a new era of endless, globalized conflict—from the Ukraine proxy-war to the escalating mess in the Middle East—using these manufactured crises to keep us in a state of perpetual fear. By pitting neighbor against neighbor over our medical choices and distracting us with a constant drumbeat of war, they ensure we are too busy fighting each other to see who is actually pulling the strings. Their playbook is perfected: crush our autonomy, censor the truth, and keep us fighting over the scraps of our own liberty. They know that as long as we are divided and distracted by the “emergency of the day,” we will never turn our attention toward the “powers-that-should-not-be” who are consolidating total control.

If you’ve stuck with me this far, I commend you. Does anyone notice what has gone on? Has anyone noticed that things have gotten progressively worse in every generation? More violence, more police actions, more invasions. Has anyone noticed that many of these things were done exclusively by government? Wars. Financial Crises. Bombings. “Agencies” formed to grab more power over people all over the world. None of these things can be blamed on a group of people in a particular “generation.” In fact, in almost all cases, most of the population was against these things and the government did it anyway. That’s just an inconvenient fact.

So, to sum this up: Yes… Boomers are at fault for some things. Maybe we should have said “no” more. Maybe we should have protested more. But to “Blame a Boomer” for everything we are going through right now is dishonest. The things that have been done behind the scenes over the decades have made it nearly impossible for any generation to stand up to it. We, the people, have had no say in any of it. Most of the time, it’s been politicians with an agenda who have continued to steal the people’s money to pay for the nightmare. The media has been right there with their shell game of lies, keeping our attention away from what’s really going on by pushing fear, division, race, LGBTQ, trans, the pharmaceutical agenda, and so much more.

Here’s where I am: We must come together. All generations. Whether you agree with someone 100% or just 20%, if we are honest, we can agree on one thing: What has been done over the years in the name of “emergencies” has only served those in power and has destroyed the people’s peace. Our economy. Our unity. Our love for one another. Our Patriotism. And our hope. We have been constantly “educated” about who we are supposed to hate. The worst thing? We have all listened. Every generation has fallen prey to the lies and propaganda put into place to keep us confused and divided. I’m having none of it. The only thing I care about is freedom. Freedom for you. For me. And for all generations who come after us. If we don’t stop pointing fingers and start doing something by coming together, we won’t have anything left. Only those at the top will have anything, and they will laugh as an ignorant people, divided by their own hands, eat the crumbs they are allowed to have. We truly will own nothing… and happiness will be a distant memory. We can stop this from happening. We just have to be willing to humble ourselves just a bit and reach out to the ones around us that we have been blaming for every problem and encourage them to see the real problem and start pointing their fingers at the real elephant in the room.
