How the Boomer Myth Shaped the World, and Then Fell Apart

It’s time to admit that, like boomers themselves, “OK boomer” is old. Since we’ve now entered a period where the idea of what it means to be a boomer has become contested, it’s time to ask: What was the boomer ideal, and how much of it holds up? By looking at the pop culture the boomers originally produced, and comparing it to the way they’re portrayed now, we can gain insight into how to correct some of that generation’s mistakes, but also where to find generational common ground, and potentially learn from the past.
