.1. Happened before the Boomers. Fine, “Boomers protected existing policy.”

You moved the goalposts:

“Policy voted in by Boomers.” → “Boomers protected existing policy.”

and even then you kind of fail:

I’d say boomers did little about it, aside from voting for politicians (pre-boomers (e.g Mitch), boomers (e.g. Richard Blumenthal), and post-boomers (e.g. Gen-Xers like MTG, or Millennials like Matt Gaetz)).

While proportionately more boomers might vote for the bad guys—by a few percentage points—than post-boomers, it’s not much of a difference, and Gen Xers and Millennials might get more conservative as they get older. Look at Alex Karp, a Gen Xer: IIUC he went from describing himself as a Marxist and supporting Biden, to being in league with Trump.

​

.2. “Policy not needed” either it’s a problem or it isn’t. If it’s a problem then policy would improve it. If it’s not a problem then don’t list it.

I don’t see how policy would improve such things.

.4. What policy would you think of that would stop people from using Twitter, Facebook, and Amazon? or give alternatives a chance?

Bluesky seems to be a big alternative to Twitter; but perhaps it’s cool in a way Twitter was cool 15 years ago. How are we sure it won’t become as bad as Twitter in, say, 2041, when members of Gen Alpha might become members of Congress?

.5. What policy would you have to prevent cat and dog owners feeding their pets factory farmed meat?

What about those poor Gen Zs who can afford the expensive free range meat? Should their pet food be subsidized? This might tick-off the animal rights crowd—the ones who protest veganism while not keeping darling cute little furry pet carnivores.

.7. What policy would you have for independent solar? That every house sold must have, say, an array of PVCs that can produce up to 4 kilowatts of power and an array of batteries—wp:Nickel–iron batteries as they are less harmful to the environment than lithium or even lead-acid?

​

Regardless, you listed a problem which could be improved by policy which never happened because Boomers didn’t make it a priority.

and I don’t see post-boomers easily or quickly changing things either.

​

I don’t give two shits about Platner or whatever smear campaign corporate centrists are trying to run to stop the DSA from gaining ground.

So it’s okay for a candidate to rape if he’s a progressive. Ditto the totenkopf. Ditto that he participated in mass-murder of Iraqis and Afghanis.

Some of it makes me think of “wp:It’s the economy, stupid” for Bill Clinton.

Legacy and retrospective assessment

The Clinton–Lewinsky scandal was subject to widespread media coverage, resulting in considerable difficulties for Monica Lewinsky later in life as she attempted to find employment. In 2014, she publicly re-emerged as an activist against cyberbullying and public shaming after writing the essay Shame and Survival for Vanity Fair.[68] Subsequently, several prominent media figures who had covered or mocked Lewinsky during the scandal expressed regret at their role in it. David Letterman remarked “I feel bad about my role in helping push the humiliation to the point of suffocation”.[69]

​

IMO, non-American boomer women are probably more progressive and/or less toxic than post-boomer American men.

Indeed, non-American boomer women from OECD, EU, and/or EFTA member states are probably more progressive and/or less toxic than post-boomer American men.
