The Boomers didn’t march out of the womb as warriors. They stumbled out as bullies. Masters of punching down, kings of kicking the little guy, and absolute experts at pretending it’s “tough love” while they hoard power like it’s a retirement hobby.
Look at their poster boys. Patrick Bet-David embraces a YouTube-fueled tough guy fantasy. Elon Musk is the world’s richest edgelord. He cosplays as a genius while breaking everything he touches. These guys aren’t innovators. They’re mascots for a generation obsessed with stepping on throats and calling it “success.”
And of course, the GOP is right there cheering it all on. They wave their flags of fear and blame. To them, it’s a patriotic duty to keep the weak, the poor, and the different stuck at the bottom.
It’s not courage. It’s not brilliance. It’s bullying in a business suit. It is wrapped in ego. It is sold as the American dream. People are still buying it like it’s on clearance.
