Boomers actually did a lot of great things that other generations benefits from.

    Classic Rock. Civil rights. Moon landing. Birth control and abortion. Counterculture and peaceful protests making it OK to be a dissident. Making pants way more commonplace for women. And mid-century modern design.

    I know it's trendy to hate on boomers, and a lot of them are out of touch and have gotten more close-minded as they've aged, but there was a lot of good that could be laid at their feet as well.
