Within minutes of MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk being assassinated at an event in Utah on Wednesday, authorities had arrested at least one suspect – a Boomer – before releasing him and confirming that the perp remains at large. One can hardly call that profiling surprising these days.

Brainwashed Boomers are ready to kill for the Western establishment
The generation associated with all kinds of revolution is now smashing the rebels and protecting the rulers

Way back in the day, Boomers championed democracy and freedom and were the biggest critics of the system. Now, they’re its main protectors. If they have to literally kneecap an anti-establishment rebel in order to maintain the busted status quo, they will.

It was just another typically chill day earlier this month in the utopic EU garden when the frontrunner in next month’s Czech parliamentary election got a high five. From an old guy. To the head. With a cane. While he was out campaigning. So he decided to take some time on the bench to catch his breath before heading back out on the campaign trail and risking another Boomer beatdown.

After Slovakia, violence has seeped into Czech politics as well. No wonder. His political adversaries have demonized @AndrejBabis for years. This is the result. But they will not stop him. He will go on and win the elections! Get well soon, my friend!” wrote anti-establishment Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.

Like Orban, it turns out that Babiš and his right-leaning populist party tick all the boxes for inducing Boomer derangement syndrome. Opposed to defense spending “for Ukraine” and NATO’s demand to blow 5% GDP on weapons while a cost-of-living crisis rages at home? Check. Fed up with the EU’s green authoritarianism and lax migration policies? Check. Against Ukraine being brought into the EU? Check.

Basically, Babiš is singing the same tune that’s increasingly resonating with a growing number of citizens all across the EU and driving up polling for parties like his that oppose the establishment status quo. So it’s not surprising that his party is attributing the attack to vibes created by that same establishment.

“The hatred spread by the ruling parties on billboards and social media has today resulted in an attack on Andrej Babiš,” wrote party deputy Alena Schillerová. “This is a direct consequence of their campaign based on fear and division. The ANO movement will continue to run a positive campaign, without labeling or scaremongering, and we call on all parties and movements in the Czech Republic to do the same.” 

If this all sounds familiar, it should. It’s not the first time that a candidate opposing the EU establishment’s position on Ukraine has suffered a beatdown from an ardent Boomer fan of “Ukrainian values.” Last year, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico took some bullets to the abdomen in an assassination attempt. It came out in court that the perp, yet another peace-and-love Boomer, this time a 71-year-old “poet,” was all worked up over Fico’s Ukraine policy.

“I forgive him and let him sort out what he did and why he did it in his own head. In the end, it is evident that he was only a messenger of evil and political hatred, which the politically unsuccessful and frustrated opposition developed in Slovakia to unmanageable proportions,” Fico said in his post-recovery return to public life. That opposition, in Fico’s case, would be the Boomer-whispering establishment.

Alright, so are there any other politicians supporting the end of war in Ukraine for Boomers to whack? Lots, apparently. It’s like the EU garden is hosting one big state fair and hosting a giant game of Whack-a-Mole, with Boomers smashing populist peace advocates like they’re gunning for a high score.

Last year in Germany, the press recorded 48 attacks on populist right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) politicians over six months – doubling violence in five years. That figure includes, for example, a city council official stabbed with a box cutter. All this had happened as the party tops the polls.

Anyway, you have to wonder why every time a politician questions the establishment’s Ukraine policy, some crazed Boomer volunteers to ‘fact-check’ them with physical violence. In the tranquil EU garden, opposing Ukraine policy apparently means that you’re the weed getting whacked.

But the phenomenon doesn’t end in Europe. Ryan Wesley Routh, a Boom-adjacent 59-year-old, is accused of trying to pick off US President Donald Trump at his golf course in Florida back in 2022. Before that, he was allegedly helping to make drones in Kiev and recruiting for the frontlines to compensate for personally being deemed unsuitable as cannon fodder.

Whatever happened to fighting the system? Nowadays, Boomers seem the most radicalized by it and have become willing pawns in protecting the establishment. Perhaps because, as an age class, they’re the biggest beneficiaries of its entitlements, and somehow think that it can only get worse.

How else to explain the ridiculous violent imagery in the last Canadian federal election? A veritable Boomer tsunami inundated the campaign with “Elbows Up” t-shirts and imagery, ripped straight from hockey jargon, pretending to sharpen those joints to battle Trump. How? By making sure the Gen X right-wing anti-establishment candidate lost to Boomer career central banker and globalist darling Mark Carney. They’d have been better off investing in some knee pads, given the lack of tangible improvement to their lives since Carney’s election.

For a generation synonymous with all kinds of revolutions – sexual, musical, cultural, anti-wat, civil rights, women’s liberty – they sure seem intent on clinging to whatever The Man tells them to think through official channels and corporate media.

Gallup and other polling outlets reporting in 2024–2025 found sympathy and approval for Israel’s actions concentrated more among the over-55 age groups. Last year, Pew Research reported that only 16% of adults under 30 favored the US providing military aid to Israel, compared with 56% of those 65 and older. As The Guardian reported earlier this year, “a net total of 49% of over-70s supported military service” for Ukraine among Europeans actually eligible to be deployed – unlike them.

Is this seriously the same generation that saw right through all the nonsense peddled about fighting to the last American in Vietnam? Now some of them are literally taking up arms against those they feel are standing in the way of the military-industrial complex.

Guess the revolution has come full circle. Boomers are smashing the rebels with one hand while polishing their rulers’ trophies with the other. Hey Boomers, save all that fire and fury for the real villains – not the ones your TV told you to hate this week.
