I recently decided it’s unfair to judge them for how well they’re handling change, when they’ve gone through the most change in history. My parents grew up in the mud and died on the Internet.
Not really, though, the Boomers were the generation OF change. They went from giant radios that ran on vaccuum tubes to portable transistor radios and people walking on the moon, all within the period of roughly 10 years. They are the generation that saw plastics replace other products. They are one the generations to see the Internet come into being.
Boomers were primed for change from birth and only showed a distaste for it once they became middle aged.

Sorry, that’s not an argument. That’s like saying “Frank didn’t suffer from trauma because he went through tons of it already.”
Even if there’s a truth to them having practice or training, getting harder, etc., humans can still have limits.
I’m confused at your strawman about trauma when I’m just talking about the changing technology from the 1950s onward.
