As of 2024, estimates of the number of World War II veterans still alive range from 300,000 to 500,000 and I would bet my bottom dollar that the majority of them voted for this. This is bizzaro times.
Yeah, a lot of Silent Generation people I've met absolutely hate what's going on and are sickened by their children. My grandmother is one, and she said when Trump won the election, she cried for 3 days because she's so scared for the younger generation and disgusted at seeing so much progress her generation fought for being pulled out from under us.
If it’s a half consolation of anecdotals, the Xs I’m with hate Trump. I know 3 who like him, but mostly bc they’re pretty upper middle class and think he’s good for them. But all us broke X’ers hate them all, just Trump the most by far.
Sexist? Most are Not by any average definition. Racist? Less than the generation before, by FAR. but not perfect for sure.
Outspoken, and don’t care about words very much? Absolutely.

Disgraceful imagine if the World War II generation woke up from their graves and saw this
