I'm aware. In ancient hunter gatherer societies elders often accepted death gracefully once their care needs became a burden on the tribe. They knew that their final purpose was to look out for the greater good.

Things changed with the advent of civilization and especially modern medicine. Modern society has minimal if any comfort with death. If anything it fights it to the point of embracing the unnatural.

Boomers have been a burden for some time now. That doesn't mean they have to disappear nor are they the only generation in human history that has had a negative impact. But it's notable to the point that an asterisk will be put next to their era. They inherited, in many ways, a world of plenty (relative peace and abundance) and have left us with a world of scarcity (whether artificial or real).

That does not mean there aren't absolutely incredible people that are a part of this generation. But collectively, they have either actively or passively allowed institutions to be steered towards complicity with mass suffering and that will not be soon forgotten.
