How disappointed we will all be when all the boomers are dead and it doesn’t solve any of our problems.

Shame the damage they did won't go with them.

Interesting to look at, numbers wise.. but it makes me think of the time I have left with my parents. I'm calling them tomorrow!

WTF are Keanu Reeves and Madonna doing there 😃

The problem isnt going to end with them. My right wing friends are completely indoctrinated by their boomer parents. And getting louder and louder about it.

Just How stupid does one have to be to think all their woes exist with only one generation? There are far bigger monsters alive today in current younger generations (many in millennial) that are far more destructive to our lives and the earth. They’ve seen more $$$ than any boomer and will laugh at you while you live out of a garbage can.

And you’d still probably be posting stupid memes like this acting completely oblivious to the burning hell around you.

I find this insanely interesting. I hope someone does this for us Xers but I have a feeling that everyone will forget about us.

And with this, I’m also interested in the rate of change here. Are boomers dying faster, slower, steady rate?

I love how many people are going on about how one generation isn't the cause of all our problems. I agree. Neither the post nor the website say anything good nor bad about any generation, just that it's -mildly interesting- that boomers just hit 1/3 dead.

Who the fuck put keeanu in there?

Not long ago I found out that my dad is too old to be a boomer. Apparently it's called "the silent generation".

Is this like a timer for when we can start fighting climate change?

Putting Keanu next to dead Boomers is like when Micheal Scott announced he hit Meredith and the doctors did all they could.

Why would you phrase it like that?!

Boomers were hated by their elders for being too liberal and hated by their youngers for being to conservative.

It's a start.

I kid, I kid, my parents are already dead, not everyone who was/is a boomer is horrid. But this generation has hung around power for too long, it's time to move on.

At this point, I'd rather like to see edgelords go extinct.

well that's fucking dark (and as others have pointed out, misguided - won't solve a thing)

One of my student in his 20s, recently told me "ok boomer". I'm 42.

The only way we can start to have actual positive change is unfortunately to wait for them to die out. They have proven they refuse to make the world a better place and will go out as selfishly and as damaging as possible. What a harmful and entitled generation.

Nooo my man Keanu. Your a soulless casket of meat

Must be nice to have Gen X parents eh? I mean…. Being able to afford the luxury of wishing death upon an entitle generation with no consequences…. Sounds so…. Easy.

What kind of psycopath counts generation death as a good thing. All interesting humans dead and you take it as an achievement.

Stop crying on the past. Stop blaming past on generations. Start learning from past generation mistakes, and thank them for having you.

Because as a new generation we're going to make a lot of mistakes, who knows if more or less than the past generations. And we shouldn't be blamed in the future.

Blaming the past generations and not learning from them is a childish response. Start doing something productive and useful to society, blaming is not helping.

Stop having tantrums and grow up. And thank you have past generations otherwise you would have to create all we have now from scratch.

It's like saying "Newton dumb" because his work is old and it doesn't work correctly for all physical frames, not like Einstein his work is much better. Both are as good because they lived at different times with different technology, knowledge, society, etc.

This feels like explaining basic life knowledge to a 3 year old tbh.

Thanks Lemmy. I just had to wiki to double-verify that Keanu Reeves is not dead.

Thank God.
