I've gotta give kudos to the elders in the comments who are in the loop and reading Raw Egg Nationalist. It's easy to hate on boomers, even for boomers to hate on boomers from my experience, but there's a lot more of them that are aware of the programming and have been fighting it for much longer than many of us have been born as well.

"Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth." Ephesians 6:2-3.
We would do well to reckon with what this commandment really means for us on both an individual and communal level. For those us may not have good elders in their lives, which are many unfortunately, to be sure, it would do well to seek out those elders who do care for the young people around them--they exist. Many have experience, connections, possessions, etc. that they have accumulated but have no one to leave it to and would love to give a leg up to a young person. As we all fight to develop high trust communities, hopefully we will find each other and build a greater legacy than we could ever do out on our meagre own.
Spot on, and I hate Boomers. Of course there are the few exceptions, and the "squares" who saw what was happening and tried to warn us. There just weren't enough of them. That horrible commandment should read "Honor your ancestors." That's what you're really doing, in honoring the hard work, sacrifice, history, and traditions of the people who brought you into being, not your horrible Boomers parents who definitely in no way honored their own parents and ancestors.
