Who said anything about hating them? Silent or Boomers, the point is that these ladies are enjoying a retirement that future generations aren’t going to.
What’s hateable is a capitalist, conservative economic system that is stealing this rosy future from almost every young person living today.

Good to see the Boomers enjoying their juicy retirements. They may be the last generation to do so.

I wish you were right. But you’re vastly underestimating the affect that automation and climate change in particular are going to have on societies worldwide. These issues represent two apocalyptic horizons - one economic and one environmental - which are going to make this whole unsustainable capitalist economic system come crashing down, likely within the lifetimes of current young people.
