There's a difference between fixing the issue (which posts like this don't) and therapeutically blowing off steam (which these posts do).

These posts cause resentment. This is not blowing off steam. It's blaming someone else.

You think Millennials and Gen Z didn’t resent Boomers before seeing posts like this?

Bro, we live this shit every day. This is just venting in a literal shit-post sub. Imagine being on /r/sipstea and saying “this post isn’t productive!” lol

So you were just sitting around steaming about the generational wealth divide hating on boomers when you happened along this post? Sis, this is stirring up misguided resentment against a whole generation of a hundred million plus people based on false beliefs that life was simple and easy back then.

And I didn't say it's unproductive. I said it's harmful.
