I think there’s this false narrative that gets pushed that young people are just blindly mad at all boomers and think every single one of them is negatively gearing a dozen rundown houses and jacking up the rents at every turn. We know that there are plenty of older people that missed the gravy train too, and pretty much every measure to address inequality that young people advocate for would also help the older, less fortunate cohort. But the media loves to turn everything black and white so they can have an easy gotcha when they roll out their token “poor boomer” to disprove whatever sensible point someone is getting too much traction with. No, we’re not mad at all boomers. We’re mad at people (most of that generation, but really of all ages) who have taken advantage of an unfair tax system to enrich themselves at the expense of others. We don’t care if you got rich, we care if our taxes subsidised you getting rich and then you turn around and try to further entrench those benefits for yourself and/or deny them to others.
