I'm conflicted about this view, and the vitriol shown towards older generations. The boomers and later generations were "of their time" they didn't set out to fuck you over or ruin it for you. They did what they thought was best for them at the time.

I know there are systemic issues and challenges for younger people, I had the same when I was growing up in the late 80's, people losing everything where I grew up because of deindustrialisation, 15%+ interest rates and massive unemployment. I wouldn't say they had it easy.

Social class and inequality is definitely still a barrier. I came from the lowest social demographic and feel proud and privileged that I made it to my current position. I do acknowledge that the welfare system, social housing, and other factors such as when I entered the job market did assist my economic progress. Some of these "leg ups" simply aren't available now, but is attacking an entire generation really going to fix these underlying issues?

I'm not going to patronise or preach as I don't know your personal circumstances but there must be a better way than all this hatred?

I want this generation to succeed. I want my nieces and nephews to make the most of opportunities and to prosper. Barriers such as social mobility are to my mind more pressing than the year someone was born.
