A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

I wonder what % of Republican boomers that support the war in Iran also refused, in one way or another, to fight in Vietnam.
Would be an interesting stat to see.
That was a pretty common evolution they went through. My mom was a free love hippie that is now basically a Nazi. She can't understand why I cut her out of my life.
The hippie to fascist pipeline is real. Their tendency to distrust the establishment means they also fall for typical fascists tactics like putting the blame on the establishment and a secret cabal in power for all their problems. Like in my country during Covid lockdowns these so called “spiritual” people voted for the blatantly fascist party.

Same for my mom. Always a people loving hippie and into crystals and alternative healing, but during covid she discovered telegram and now she votes for the far right and believes in qanon or whatever the latest stuff is.
It's honestly fucking tragic.
But it has taught me that my dad cared more about the aesthetics of the hippie culture, but never actually stood for any real ideology. Just shallow bullshit like music and fashion. And acid.
I suspect this is probably the case for a lot of ex-hippies.
Real fucking shame.
And don't get me wrong, the music was fucking awesome. I just wish there was more substance.
Interestingly, this made me think of George Harrison talking about visiting San Francisco in, I think 1967. He was struck by how vapid it all was.
However, he turned to spirituality instead of rationality.

Boomers vote to build walls when they can barely lift a brick
Yep, they have the opportunity to build bridges, but they choose to build walls and gatekeep.

Its the 1% vs the working class, not generation vs generation.
And unfortunately part of that working class are class traitors who vote against the rest of our interests as they pull the ladder up behind them.

The elected officials sending everyone off to die for war are often older than boomers. It's a rich and powerful group more than a generational group.
You're right. I've got maga-headed boomers in my life I want to take it out on though and posting memes is how I give that desire an outlet

Seems to me you can handle it one of two ways.
One, you can punish the boomers. When Z gets in power, abolish pensions, Social Security, and Medicare. Let the old die from poverty and disease. And then you yourself won't have any safety net when you're that age.
Two, you can focus on the class struggle. Focus on weakening the billionaires who control us and who made up this bullshit in the first place. Target income inequality, access to services, and draconian employment practices. Begin the century-long transformation of capitalism. This is the harder road.
So which one will do more good?
Obviously the latter. But I need to make fun of older Americans who lost the plot for my mental health

This isn't accurate. They are also calling us lazy and saying we don't want to work hard.
The older I get and the more I understand that boomers had literally it the easiest out of any one in history the more salty I get over them calling millennials & gen Z lazy all those years.
All you stupid oldies had to do was put like 2% of your paycheck into any index over your career and you would be rich AF right now. Which, is exactly why so many boomers are fucking loaded right now and old a historically disproportionate amount of wealth for the generation.

And honestly, at this point if you go to a local Democratic party meeting, see a bunch of protesters on the side of the road, or meet with the local liberal or progressive organization's members -- the majority of the most active members will be boomers in a huge portion of the country. Outside of the cities and/or the odd left-leaning rural area, young people don't seem to get involved.
So, to blame the problems on just that generation but also all of that generation is just wrong.
I think this isn't because boomers are the only ones who care about politics, but more because boomers are more likely to be retired now and have free time to do this stuff. I agree that generational warfare is stupid
