okanogen VerminEnemyFromWithin<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Boomers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Boomers</a> protested at Wounded Knee and started the American Indian Movement. Boomers gave us Head Start, SNAP, and Sec. 8. Boomers started the Feminist movement and almost got us the Equal Rights Amendment on top of Title IX protections for women's sports. Boomers started the Black Panthers. Boomers created the internet, personal computers and cell phone networks. Boomers fought in and led massive protests against the Vietnam War, creating the Peace Movement. Jeff Bezos is not a boomer.

Jason BeetsGallup has collected generational data in each of the years it has examined LGBT identity in the US.I used several line graphs to compare the percent of each generation that identified as LGBT from 2012 to 2024.Every time, the generational pattern has been consistent — each generation has a higher proportion that identifies as LGBT than the generation that came before. <a href="https://jasonbeets.blogspot.com/2025/03/lgbt-identity-by-generation-2012-24.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://jasonbeets.blogspot.com/2025/03/lgbt-identity-by-generation-2012-24.html</a>9/x <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/LGBT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LGBT</a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/GenZ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenZ</a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/Millennials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Millennials</a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/GenX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenX</a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/Boomers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Boomers</a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/SilentGen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SilentGen</a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#US</a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USA</a>
