Corporate media is trying to turn zoomers against Millennials and try to gaslight millennials further. These neoliberal media outlets are the worst scum on earth and deserve nothing but hatred and contempt.
Don't fall for this capitalist propaganda. Both generations are equally screwed over.

"Two generations, two radically different fates.

Did you read the whole article? I’m betting that is a big fat no.
Interesting that you came to that conclusion because that is just not what the op Ed was getting at.
Example of boomers trying to turn millennials against zoomers:

"No one living in their parents basements for a decade this go around. Job market outstanding. And no housing bubble bursting with millions of foreclosures."

There's a reason they're considered a generation of sociopaths. Not all boomers are literally evil, but they collectively inherited the wealthiest, most prosperous country in human history, then needlessly pissed it all away to enrich themselves.
Every generation afterwards has been negatively affected.
They should further be held accountable if it becomes obvious China drastically overtakes the US economically, since boomer politicians built up China.
They're not hated merely for being selfish, wealthier, and more privileged, but for so thoroughly pulling up the ladder while perpetually lying and gaslighting everyone about it.
The benefit of being a boomer was that property in good areas of California New York and other nice states during the 70's were $15-20K. My parents, primarily my mother bought and sold a dozen properties during that decade in LA. She hung on to four of them and when she got too old to take care of herself I became her caregiver and sold one that she bought for $18K for $550K to give her the very best care. When she passed away I sold the remaining for $1.5 million so my wife and I retired comfortably. This story is fairly common among boomers. Their homes purchased for 15K in the 60's are worth over a million in this decade. Half the homes being sold in this area are boomers selling, taking the cash and getting the hell out of California and retiring to states with much lowers COL. We're not evil or sociopaths. We just had an opportunity that millennials will never see. The downside is we're getting ready to die of old age.
