The extraordinary World War II generation witnessed nearly 16 million brave Americans step forward to serve valiantly in the armed forces across the globe, ultimately sacrificing over four hundred thousand precious lives to enemy guns, torpedoes, and falling bombs. During this monumental global conflict, dedicated servicemen frequently spent countless grueling years stationed far overseas, enduring immense hardship entirely away from their beloved wives, cherished children, and extended families.
They fought valiantly through the unimaginable devastation of the 1929 stock market crash and the subsequent economic ruin of the Great Depression. Yet, they clung to the core values of American culture and kept moving forward despite the odds. Countless courageous young men, much like my own grandfather did in his youth, eagerly lied about their true ages to military recruiters just to secure a precious chance to fight overseas for their cherished homeland.
On the home front, ordinary American citizens lived under strict and demanding government rationing programs that carefully limited access to everyday staples, yet they still freely cared for and deeply supported their neighbors through trying times. Meanwhile, the nation’s vast industrial manufacturing sector shifted its primary focus away from standard home goods like automobiles and refrigerators to rapidly produce vital wartime machinery such as tanks, planes, and munitions.
During that pivotal and transformative era, remarkable men and women demonstrated extraordinary dedication by making profound, historic sacrifices to secure their country’s future and safeguard their cherished way of life. Millions of resolute women eagerly stepped forward to enter demanding heavy industry, vital manufacturing sectors, and bustling defense plants, thereby completely reshaping the traditional contours of domestic life and forever altering the fabric of society.
Millions of returning veterans entered industry and college and fortified the foundation of a middle class; they converted wartime manufacturing into a dominant postwar economy. They also managed a post-war baby boom, giving birth to and raising over seventy million people.
This next generation would be referred to as baby boomers, and they’d be the anomaly to past generations. Most of them grew up as self-entitled little brats, never knowing or recognizing the struggles and sacrifices of their parents.
So what went wrong?
The baby boomers were the hippies who hated America and who would wreak havoc on it for decades. They consisted of killers, serial rapists, and mass murderers like Hillary Rodham, Bill Clinton, and George Bush. They were the billionaire CEOs and the coke sniffers of the nineteen seventies and eighties. They were the “it’s all about me” generation that took everything they could from America and refused to give any back.
They bought big fancy homes, and they favored lower-income and capital-gains taxes while underfunding infrastructure, education, and Social Security. They are also the reason that the United States is seventeen trillion dollars in debt, and it won’t change soon because they still run the government.
Boomers live lavishly off all the safety nets they’ve installed, like social insurance, healthcare, and retirement, while absorbing forty percent of government spending. They don’t care where the money comes from as long as it’s not from their pockets.
The generation known as the baby boomers frequently represented the paradoxical demographic of anti-government pot smokers who passionately protested the tragic escalation of the Vietnam conflict, yet ironically championed heavily government-funded military interventions overseas, such as the prolonged and seemingly endless wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
In the ’80s, they were pro-racism, pro-sexism, and pro-imperial America but have now become the messengers of anti-whiteism and anti-Americanism. Although they now rage through life as short-haired “Karens,” white boomer women are credited with bringing on the sickening “woke” disaster.
The boomers also hated American culture and worked tirelessly at separating everyone based on race or sex. Thanks to the boomers, we have a splintered society that recognizes what we are, not who we are or what we can offer.
