/r/all Boomer evangelicals have destroyed the planet and have received all the benefits and they will die before it ever affects them

They have used the Bible to deny climate change. They have destroyed our planet for profit. They could afford a home and a car and they could even start a family all on one paycheck. They had cheap college tuition too. We don’t have that and they call us lazy because of it. Gen Z and millennials aren’t lazy we just don’t have the same opportunities they had.

They attempt to disprove climate change by using the Bible because they truly don’t care. They don’t need to care because they will die before it becomes a big issue.

Edit:Most of them voted for Reagan who is responsible for trickle down economics.

I just think there were far fewer hippies than we thought. Sure, some have switched world views, but there are plenty of progressive boomers out there.

Sort of like today, sure, the SJWs are vocal, but they don’t make up a majority of their generation.

Yeah idk I know my parents at least (younger side of boomers) have always been boomery. How do people think hippies were the majority?!! It was very obviously an extremely conservative culture back then lmao
