Demoralizing to the point of madness, and there is basically nothing that can be done about this short of violent upheaval or economic reckoning as retirees will never ever vote against their own interests.

We had our chance in 2020 by letting Covid burn through the population and wipe them out, but instead a bunch of millennials, being the spineless faggots they are and listening to their boomer parents crocodile tears, were scared they wouldn’t get inheritance if they didn’t scream “MASK UP AND TRIPLE VAX OR YOULL KILL GRANDMA!”

Medieval peasants would grow crops, process the crops, take the crops to market, make all their food from scratch with what they grew/foraged themselves and sometimes bought at market or traded for, and many were skilled craftsmen who made trade goods in their free time or during the colder months when you couldn't farm. They'd also likely have had something like chickens around and some of them even more livestock. Fishing if they lived near a river or lake. For a lot of them this was subsistence rather than profit. You had to work with the seasons and weather. It's all much more involved skill sets than people think. Again, a lot of them were skilled tradesmen too.

Many of them were also illiterate, which nowadays translates as being an idiot but in ye olden days it meant having to pass down knowledge orally and remember complex processes in their heads, so they most likely had much better memories than we do now. Also their intelligence would have been a lot more localized to the natural resources around them, so they were probably a lot better at land management.

While not quite medieval, I recommend skimming through Lark Rise to Candleford. It's a nice biographical novel of a woman who was born in 1876 and died in 1947, which coincides with the period of urbanization and agricultural industrialization in the English Midlands. Even in the 19th century, rural English homes engaged in tenant farm work next to their trades, such as being a mason in the case of the author's father. While not relying on subsistence farming, families still kept cottage gardens and their yearly pig in addition to the food they bought. It includes even interesting mentions of what was effectively buying shares in individual lifestock. Struggling families would jointly purchase a pig and claims parts of it upon slaughter depending on their initial contribution. Only near the author's adolescence, her family abandoned this style of living in favor of moving to a city to work at a post office. They were not stupid people at all and just engaged in work that was available to them and made most sense given their skills and available opportunities. When times changed, they adapted. Reymont's Peasants is a different example of a similar book but set in Eastern Europe.

The time period in which the boomers grew up really had very little external pressure, whether survival or purely financial. It's completely anomalous in human history and apparently it will culminate in nothing except senseless wars and a protracted cost of living crisis. It's likely that the American boomers will be the generation that experienced least hardship on average across human history, which is exactly why they are insufferable on average.

Well at least you can have the peace of mind of knowing that you're being replaced by land managing geniuses
 
Ok I'll play the devil's advocate here and defend boomers in the sense that:
* Yes, 50 years ago retail stores were overstaffed and you DID have time as an employee to stand around and chat with people.
* 50y ago people working in retail were genuinely experienced people who knew what they were doing, were paid well for their skills and were put there to help you, not an underpaid 18yo or immigrant who can only run the cashier.
* People were running their own businesses, not shareless employees at a nameless corp. They really cared about the customer and the business, and didn't want to lose a customer.
* Customers were a lot fewer and part of your community, so of course you'd chat up with them.
* Workers were a lot less laxed and not micromanaged/monitored 24/7. If someone spent time chatting a customer, you didn't have 3 managers jumping on thrir ass to yell at them that they took 10 more seconds to move a product from aisle 1 to aisle 3.

Remember also booomers took this away from you.
 
Fuck those faggot ass boomers. Always saying I was a lazy ass Millennial while I worked multiple jobs to pay rent. My first landlord was a boomer and I looked him up to see if he still lived at the old address so I could do the poop bag on fire dingdong ditch prank. I found out he is dead. Good riddance.
 
So I just had my dental cleaning and my hygienist was telling me about how some of her patients are crazy and this old lady, Boomer of course, accused her of trying to get kickbacks for trying to "sell the procedure" for fixing a cavity. This old boomer has a cavity, doesn't believe it, and accuses the hygienist of wanting kickbacks and trying to "upsell her". Boomers are something else.
 
What will go out of business when boomers finally croak off?

Here’s mine: wineries.

Younger generations don’t drink as much as they do boomers, they don’t even drink wine that much, and if they do it’s just some filler cheap box wine because they don’t have the disposable income of boomers, so they’re Not going to have some 120$ glass.

Most physical stores, especially cheap stores like Ollie’s are bound to go with the Boomer generation.

Facebook is a pretty obvious one if we are talking online, their main demos are like 50+ now.

Hollywood will be significantly hit going by their demographics being in the 60s for programming like Colbert. Would also throw in the news as CNN, FOX, and MSNBC are all on borrowed time.

Country Clubs are probably also in a weird spot since most youths cannot afford them. Maybe the real high end ones will stay, but more upper-middle class will probably flounder with that demo ceasing to exist.

No Jeets go to Country clubs to show off to other jeets by being around white people. If it was full of pajeets they wouldn't dare to spend those high fees

Only very very few Jeets, as in those often pale Westernized highest caste ones, are assimilable, the overwhelming majority are just unassimilable un-Westernized Browns. They either smell awful, or drench themselves in overpowering perfume, and often unsanitary, or equally worse, smug. Eugh.

And I'm here for the Boomer and older Millennial hate, so many of them are just either complicit or f*cking oblivious to inflation, mass immigration, and multiculturalism. The most based folks seem to be the Silent Generation and right-wing Gen Z.

Wineries will survive the Boomer bust because even though Gen Z may not be drinking as much, wineries are still considered an upper-society activity and lots of younger folks actually enjoy that sort of thing, and unlike country clubs wineries are an agricultural and culinary experience. Wineries are also tourist attractions, including young people. The fact is that wineries can only grow in temperate climates and so that adds to its novelty. Not to mention, wines have cross-gender appeal, lots of wines are being targeted to women too.

When people say "Gen Z are drinking less" it just means they're no longer binging in clubs getting drunk on beer and shots. Lots of them are into craft beer, craft cider, cocktails, and wines. Espresso martinis and pink roses wines are Gen Z trends.

Gen Z are drinking less because they're becoming selective of what they drink.

I believe there are also simply less alcoholics. An alcoholic could consume more in a month than a normal person does in a year.

that's the majority probably tbh
the only men i've met who like wine are old (old X and boomer) guys who seem to mostly be into it as a status thing that signals good taste and high class. overall i know way more women who like wine than men.
from my experience men drink a lot more than women, but they liek different kinds of alcohol. men guzzle beer by the gallon and get hammered on hard liqor while women like drinking wine and sipping champagne.
