We are all stupid when we are young.
Look at the chart again
Why do you trust what is told to you?
Do you believe that the vaccines are safe and effective and that masking works?
There's no credibility in western media. Maybe I can be more direct - our news media is propaganda. It's social and political propaganda, nothing else. They lie constantly. They make up bullshit and report it as true, constantly. Don't you remember that Kyle Rittenhouse was just a white racist that went to a riot to murder black men? That's our fucking media. There's NO TRUTH IN IT.
Boomers saw the creation if the EPA; we can remember when there was no recycling, leaded gasoline, sewage treatment plants being built, when catalytic converters were used.
Dude, it's based on exit polling.
Good discussion. For the record I think unleaded gasoline was the right decision, not everything environmental agencies/projects come up with is bad.

It was a knee jerk over reaction to toxic building materials. Lead paint, and Asbestos caused such a stir, that the "The New Thing" back then was putting on show to clean up the act. Besides every time they go on one of these clean up tangents, people get filthy rich in the process. Lead is pretty heavy, so having lead in your exhaust, does not suspend lead particles in the air. It falls back to the ground in short order.
Kids were getting lead poisoning from putting lead painted toys in their mouths, and eating lead paint chips. Funny how when I was kid, and even to this day. Lead fishing sinkers don't have a warning to not crimp them with your teeth. Which when I was kid I crimped thousands of them with my ...

There is literally no good reason to have lead in gasoline.

In cars, yes, but in General Aviation piston engines that require over 100 octane, tetraethyl lead is still needed.
modifying the engine is the answer.

Engineers have been trying for decades to do that. Unable so far.
(I don't hate boomers but I don't like these ones; so stereotypical; "I got mine so effe you!")
Yuppies didn't age well. Most Boomers that don't live in Condos or gated communities, wont complain about your Kayak rack, if you don't complain about their piss bottles piled up on the side of the house.
I belive VRBO owners should have zero say in the HOA rules
It's the reason all of those buildings have leasing offices. Personally I'd like to kick them out and put toys like kayaks, etc., we can lease to visitors but again, old people can't manage on their own...

"Favorite Leftist lie: The boomers destroyed everything
FACT: The "boomer way of doing things" was stopped completely right around 1985, at the latest 1990, and it has been ALL DOWNHILL SINCE. Boomers thought "made in Japan was crap" and even today, the old American tools when dug out and tested beat the quality of the new Japanese tools, and totally destroy anything from China. THE BOOMERS DID IT RIGHT.
They passed on enough common sense to the Gen-x'ers to make Gen-X the next target, that generation is targeted already. Boomers were the best America ever got, at a time when America was the best at EVERYTHING. It's no wonder the ire of the elite is pointed at the boomers now, and the so-called "elite" will proceed to blame everything they themselves did to destroy the United States on the boomers to make young america, which the "elite" have made clueless, hate its heritage. It's called "displacement", and it will serve well to make sure the old, great America never returns."
