So what you're saying is, millenials aren't responsible for disastrous policies yet. They'll get their turn.

Correct. I've no doubt that the new generation will also make some terrible calls thanks to lobbying being legal. I believe the environment will be much more prioritized, but we'll have to see.

However, I'm tired of silents/boomers/gen-xers making comments about and blaming millenials as if it's somehow our fault the boomers and silents in congress are out of touch. A quick look at voting demographics and the demographics of congress dispels that notion (for now, as of 2022).

Good, be tired of it.

The blame game is unhelpful unless a holistic explanation of Why Did You Do That is also given.

Who is the largest single voting bloc?

Edit: That struck a chord with millenials, ha! Tell your friends that bitching does not help, voting does. Boomers seem to understand this and so they have a disproportionate amount of influence. You want it to stop? VOTE.

Generations don't vote as blocks, but of the named generations the largest number of actual voters are Boomers, still.

2018 was the first election where Gen X and younger together outvoted Boomers and older.

There is, still, a statistical bump in the boomers, hence the baby boom.

There is just more of them, and they vote. They've only just started dying in big numbers.

Plus the older voters get the more they tend to vote, for various reasons.
