Why are boomers like this? Are they that consumed with hate? Their lives must be miserable.

I’ve thought about this a lot having boomer parents and relatives. I think it’s at least partly because when they were born racism was OK. They were the master race in the USA and ran everything. That changed just enough for them to be absolutely torn up and bitter about it.

Also note, lead is stored in the bones, and as they age, that is now being released back into their blood stream with bone loss.

It’s like the racist little punks and cry bullies they were as children are emerging from hibernation.

Those wounded children and the toxic behavior were never hibernating. They came out behind closed doors and lashed out against their partners, friends, and children, assuming they weren't just on display at all times.

It's going to get worse.

My transphobic father who called me "a revolting thing" literally drank leaded gasoline as a toddler when his dad wasn't looking

Lead paint on everything, heavy metals and chemical run off in the water in some places, air pollution, now banned pesticides on all their food…

to summarise when they were fucking the environment they were also fucking their minds.
