Most of the people I've met IRL who are boosting fintech and crypto are actually Gen-Xers

I've known like two Millennials who were enticed into it -- by Gen-Xers, incidentally -- and both got right the fuck out

Anyways, there are absolutely generational dynamics in class politics, although you're right, the main thing going on is class stuff. For the most part, Boomers are just privileged workers who benefited from a social contract that expired a generation ago and are insulated from the struggles younger workers face, yes.

It's class politics, and it's generational, tbh
