    Are you American? Are boomers Americans? If you say the word “us” in reference to Americans, of which you are a part, then boomers are also part of that group, and are included in “us.”

    You can use “us” to refer to any group or subgroup you’re part of, and you can say that a lot of people in a group you’re in are awful without taking any responsibility for that awfulness. A lot of us humans suck, but I like to think I’m not too bad

      Seems like you’re just trying to deflect blame away from Boomers honestly.

        How? I’m literally saying that a lot of Americans, boomers in particular, suck. What about that deflects blame away from boomers? I’m literally just acknowledging that they’re voting, and their votes are the bad ones
