What are we achieving with that second frame?
Blunting a very good point.
Comment105@lemm.ee 2 years ago
A point boomers, the children of WW2 fighters, intended to be driven into the backs of their own children.
froghorse@lemm.ee 2 years ago
That is a convoluted and self-serving interpretation. Maybe that’s the real point. A post-structuralist kind of point, if you know what I mean.

It’s turning a Boomer comic into a wholesome one.

It originally was the one panel meme, but it was changed to this to make it friendly
SamboT@lemm.ee 2 years ago
The problem is expecting achievement from a meme.

One thing about the greatest generation (my grandparents).
They saw some serious shit and were just legitimately happy we don’t have to see that same shit.
Funny how the coddled Boomer generation is often much more critical of the young, when they had the easiest ride ever.

They had it so easy but didn’t realize that that’s not the norm at all. They still expect the same to happen now. As if one can work through college and pay off all debts, or if just going to college meant landing a job, or even if you landed a job it would do little more than just make you live paycheck to paycheck.
WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 2 years ago
They had it so easy they’ve all been conditioned to believe that life is simple and easy. Not that it had nothing to do with their “effort” or “skills”, was easy as a direct result of complex external geopolitical and economic conditions (by chance), or that previous generations fought hard and paid for those conditions.
People are also shit at math, and inflation is unintuitive. My boomer parents are extremely sympathetic to the situation of younger generations, but still thought their mortgage in the 80’s was comparable to current. After I punched it into an inflation calculator it was about 30% less than I would pay on a 2 bedroom UNIT; they paid that on a 2 bedroom HOUSE, and only for a couple years at peak interest rates.
TL;DR: people are simple creatures and civilizations are complex machines 99.99% of us couldn’t possibly understand; even the most intelligent and best intentioned.

Not even just that. My dad didn’t go to college, he joined the military at 18. He walked away from that and landed an engineering job with no degree. Now, he’s in a position that would ask for a masters minimum making nearly 300k a year.
I joined the military and walked away with bad knees and a list of phone numbers to get a job in the trades. Don’t get me wrong, I took it, but damn I’m sure as hell not making anything near what he was at my age.
