I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I'd rather hear about things that are actually happening.

The boomers being dead means the largest, wealthiest support of old ass laws is gonna, and nearly every single member of the population at that point would have been directly harmed by capitalism.

Trying to stop people from improving things will by far be much harder, and betting on peoples apathy is a gamble that can only last so long

As opposed to the boomers, who weren't harmed by capitalism. Not like that's the generation that was sent to Vietnam or anything...
