Anyone here know this piece? Where they call out the “greatest generation”

The author laid some very well thought out points, some of them being the following.

1. How could they be so great if they raised a generation like the Boomers, and allowed the undermining of the country?
2. How could they be the “Greatest” of generations? How could the be greater then the men who founded the country?

Another hallmark of the piece was when they talk about boomers, they had a picture of a old hippie wearing a peace shirt with the slogan of “back by popular demand!” on it.

Anyone have any clue?

They were the Greatest Generation for what they did, not the generation they shat out.
I think Tom Brokaw coined the term. Get his opinions.

Not what is asked You’re not great for giving the communist have the fucking world on a silver goddamn platter.

Was that a sentence?

The "greatest generation" grew up during the Great Depression. After WWII they had children. To these children they wanted to give all of the material wealth and security that they had lacked growing up.
These children are the baby boomers.
You can draw your own conclusions about what the "boomers" did with what they were given.

Worked Pitt great, didn’t?

i call them the goyest generation. they put down the white revolt against judaism. they deserve every bit of their suffering in nursing homes, as do their corrupted boomer children.

Kikels are 100% to blame for storming our academic institutions following WW2 and any attempt at shifting that blame is just gay.

They're the greatest generation in the sense that WW2 is our fake and gay creation myth, and kikes make up generational titles to further divide us.

They are called that because they defeated the Nazis. The holohoax is responsible.
Holohoax + appeal to an entire generations egos + severe sacrifice = psychological play that cannot be countered easily.

>How can they be so great
For enduring intense hardship and modernized warfare and patriotically both defending their respective countries and maintaining the willpower to rebuild/work to create numerous new businesses, innovations, and often start completely anew.
>How could they be greater than the men who founded the country?
It has to do with where they started vs. how they ended. Again, the hardship they endured was extraordinary: 1 if not 2 world wars and some of the worst economic circumstances in industrial history. Comparison is a bit stupid but if you have to, our founding fathers were all actually extremely well off and had comfortable if not luxurious upbringings by the time period's standards. The Greatest Generation had a notably worse upbringing and often future ahead of them than their parents and grandparents. Additionally, the founding fathers fought from a passion to follow their enlightenment ideals. It's commendable, but not comparable to being drafted into a massive deadly war the moment you enter adulthood for the sake of your country and people's future - its more selfless and the circumstances are more overwhelming for the average individual.
>raised a generation like the boomers
I'll ignore the fact that you're asserting their offspring's outcome could have possibly been factored in when they were labeled the Greatest Generation - the label came before that. Besides that, it's actually fairly understandable why their children ended up remarkably worse and it's misleading to assume that was entirely under their control.
1. The beginning of the absolute nuclear family. Nuclear households weren't unheard of before, but families typically lived very close if not in the same house. The greatest generation came back to housing developments with automobile transport in mind - families drifted accordingly, leaving this generation very alone in raising their children. This was not common at all beforehand.
Cont.

1. (cont.) "It takes a village" is said for a reason; a child grows up with a very different perspective in a nuclear family and will quite literally get the perception their parents (their world, as far as they're concerned for a while) revolve completely around them. Reject the system, nuclear families are meant to destroy the west.
2. Several interviews of those in the Greatest Generation reveal an overwhelming lack of guidance. Due to the preoccupation their parents had with being economically ruined and/or fighting the first war and the fact that suburban nuclear family life was so vastly different from their childhoods, this generation didn't have much guidance in how they were supposed to even raise their kids the right way. Post ww2 is when the culture formers - elites, (((elites))), whatever you prefer - started really grabbing hold of American and British society. They were there before, but they became far more ambitious because they realized this. Have you ever seen the retro videos basically teaching people how to...people, "properly?" The Greatest Generation ate that shit up along with psychology and sociology books, etc. This is what taught them about parenting. Because they were a nuclear family, there were no influences counteracting this.
3. Readjusting to normal life after a life of hardship didn't make them great at showing emotion. What do emotionally retarded parents do when they try to show affection? Spoil their kids. Except the children end up resentful because whether they actively realize it or not, the lack of emotional intelligence not only feels like rejection, but also makes them emotionally retarded because where else would you learn it?
Boomers are they way they are due the lack of guidance and support their parents received to adapt and adjust to a vastly different world. Blaming the Greatest Generation for this is like blaming a solider for developing a fear of fireworks rather than the VA for not giving him therapy.

Anyone?

Would not have to worry about then if the Germans shut down the USSR.

> but not comparable to being drafted into a massive deadly war the moment you enter adulthood for the sake of your country and people's future - its more selfless and the circumstances are more overwhelming for the average individual

Yeah in less then 20 years we got our “rewards” of saving the world.

Or blame the Jews who sent him to
Did in a pointless, avoidable war.
