  1. There appears to me (and I could be way off here, so feel free to say so if you think so) to be a political divide between the older and younger Gen-Xers created by, if I may speak metaphorically and speak in generalities, the older ones catching a ride on the ladder to success the boomers pulled up behind them and being more able to culturally fit in with and pass as younger boomers. Meanwhile, the younger Gen-Xers, while not as hard hit as millenials, tended to be hit by boomers attacks on things like education, unions, etc and subject to the condescending ageism pervasive through the boomer generation, and so, while not that culturally seperated from older Gen-Xers, tended to be significantly seperated from boomers.

  2.  @sjbrooksy45  more like actively dismantling all the work that the previous generations did one after the other to insure they had a better future than they did. Or in more poetic language: It is said that societies flurish when old men plant trees they will never sit in the shade of. The Boomer generation, after a long, unbroken chain of paying that forward putting (as a generation, if not individuals) in the most privileged/prosperous position in history decided that, instead, they wanted to pull up the metaphorical ladder behind them, say "fuck you, I've got mine" and then shout insults made up mostly projecting their own failings on the younger generations.

  3. Not just a lot. Nearly all of it (and the remainder is complaning about positive change).
