Well, that's what I meant. You get critical mass at generational shifts every few decades.
But miss a generation? Good luck.
We missed mine.

nah, the Millenial shift happens when Millenials are old enough to take political power en-masse + Boomers are dying retiring. That's 2020 -24. You can see the foreshocks with Corbyn and Sanders.

As always, as I pointed out earlier today, everyone forgets GenX
We’re a small cohort but COME ON....it is not just boomers->millennials with nobody else in between!

It's the cringey name, + all the media babble about the Millenials.
Not that I think Millenials is great.
Boomers, at least, sounds like a gang from Fallout - so a perfect fit.
