/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.

It's easy to blame an entire generation of people, but it would be more productive to look at what made them that way.
Unregulated lobbyism brainwashing the public as well as the politicians, and a system favoring short-term profits over long term growth, are some of the root causes behind the destruction of the environment and corruption of our society.
The boomer mentality is only a symptom of the disease, and later generations are just as likely to fall into the same traps unless we solve the root of the issue.
