Did Boomer Individualism Help or Hurt America
#3
The real problem is with Boomer elites in the economic sector. They took as much as they could for themselves while destroying opportunity for those who did not fit into a bureaucratic elite. If one ever had a hard time one was suspect as a malcontent, which demonstrates the ethos of Boomer right-wing politics. These elites effectively atomized us and offered us mass low entertainment or fundamentalist religion as anodynes. Such is good for keeping people unorganized so that they do not want to participate in anything, even labor unions.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
