>>507316103Itโs this. I have examined the boomers in my life.
They all watch Fox News, they associate man on tv with credibility.
A suit, tie, and a camera = instant credibility if they say something vaguely conservative.
These people were destroyed by television.
One shotted daily by the television because back then they only had a handful of channels and they never searched beyond โtheโ conservative coverage save for occasionally hate-watching โtheโ liberal coverage for โa balanced mediaโ diet.
They were traumatized during the Cold War, they were kids and every authority figure in their life from parent to pastor to president told them almost daily they would be consumed in thermonuclear fire.
Reminding children of their own mortality without outstanding cause would be considered abuse in a more sane time.
Itโs considered abuse today.
Their churches told them Israel established in 1917 is the THE Israel of the Bible.
They hear the word โIsraelโ and itโs totally lost on them these people arenโt even from the Middle East let alone the bronze/iron age region of Judea.
Members of my family literally believe they will not die before Christ returns.
These are children mentally. Arrested development from childhood trauma inflicted by the circumstances of the Cold War (the danger was real but the traumatic expression of such danger was unnecessary, excessive, and unhealthy).
Pity the boomer for they did not see.
