Okay, but that’s not what “ok, boomer” means. It’s not about the cycle of generations. It is specifically about calling out people who are critical of the consequences of poverty of younger generations, without acknowledging that poverty itself, or Boomers’ responsibility for creating that poverty.
Maybe that’s what it means to you. I don’t think that’s a generally shared view.
It moreso means “Ok, old, out of touch person who wants to bloviate and/or gaslight me about some minutiae. I hear you, and I reject your input, but because you take any pushback as a threat to your identity, I’m going to be incredibly succinct to avoid further back and forth.”
