People who supported segregation back in the day, what made you change your mind?
Most of the segregationists in the day were democrats. Certainly none of them were MAGA, your post is inane.
Boomers were both Democrats and Republicans. Gen X was both raised to be racist by Republicans in the South (during the switch after LBJ) or became so after being left as feral animals. To this day, as Gen X, I still will never get over my disappointment with my generation. We were raised on MtV. We were raised to learn about racism and sexism. And not only did we not learn, we seem to have created some incels, read wives and an entire generation of fucking adults who are afraid talk on the phone.
I can't tell where the timeline, perspective, or naming convention shifted, but this is all over the place.
Segregationists were befoe boomers, MTV wasn't invented until after Gen X. Gen x is obviously more progressive than boomers, and the generation they have raised even more so.
Are you trying to tell me that I dreamed the birth of MtV? I was 11 when it started an it literally shaped our generation. It introduced rap to the rural white kids. Michael Jackson became the biggest star in the world while I was in high school.
As for being more progressive, look at the voting habits of Gen X and Trump. Look at who attends the rallies. It is disappointing. And young men are not becoming more progressive related to gender roles, traditional values, etc in Western states. Young women are.
I have great hope for the future, and I love my generation for many things. We have a great shared experience that is fun for reminiscing, but because we were left alone, some of us turned into some real aholes.
