Not a boomer and it’s not just kids. My suburban neighbors are calling plumbers to fix toilets and electrician to fix light switches. They just mindlessly consume resources, as they’ve been instructed. They’re choosing fiscal slavery, like lemmings off a cliff.

You don’t have to be a Boomer to be boomer posting.

“Kids today” is an illustrative phrase, not a literal one.

People have been interested in new gadgets for all of human history, no matter the cost or utility. Acting like something changed is boomer posting.

People have been interested in useless gadgets since capitalism has mandated perpetual increase in consumption. It’s now so bad that the solution to all problems is needless consumption.

But, neolibs gonna’ neolib until they can’t afford their filament.
