It’s funny, in general these past years I’ve thought of us Xers in a certain light. Reasonably well educated and open minded. Then I read this and remembered some of the fuck sticks I went to high school with.

Yup, can confirm, we Xers mostly suck. A few years back someone sent me a link to a group of my grade school classmates on fb. Every single one of them was a Trump/maga asshole.

I’m GenX and I didn’t vote for that piece of garbage.

I feel like about 40% of Gen X has become boomer lite. It's sad.

I'm GenX and if a stupid boomer ever created a fake college to scam his fellow Americans out of hard earned money, when they claim to be a billionaire, that to me just tells me their a total piece of fucking dog shit. No! I will never vote for Trump and heres what most Americans don't seem to fucking know. When you elect someone for president, you honor them by voting them in! Trump did nothing to deserve the honor of being the President of the United States of America Absolutely fucking nothing!

Agreed! It’s maddening; he’s become a cult leader and his minions are blindly obedient and blindly loyal.

There’s so much wrong with him that his fake college is just ONE symptom of his sociopathy & narcissism that serves as a warning he’s not fit for the presidency. Hell, he’s not fit to be anything other than in prison.

Older GenX here. I was bullied in Jr High (think a combo of Welcome to the Dollhouse meets Mean Girls). Girls at that age are, to be blunt, little fucking cunts.

I voted for her. And I've reached out to my GenX friends who are now in the line of attack of the Orange Turd, to let them know I have their backs and to reach out.

Agreed, and unfortunately so many of them never grow up.

That’s wonderful you reach out to friends who are most vulnerable to their awful agenda ❤️

Unlike you, the people voting differently than you ate not framing the world in terms of high school cliques. Try talking to one sometime and you will hear real adult concerns like availability of non demoralizing jobs that could support a family, affordable housing and things like that.

Oh bullshit. Anyone concerned about affordable housing, for example, would’ve voted for Harris
