How to trigger boomers? So far I have:
The Beatles weren't that good a band.
Say Vietnam was for profit
Kennedy was a bad president.
"I'm going to live at home forever."

No low effect trolling like "Ohh yeah Nazis woo!"

Fuck off "art"fag. It requires no effort to do that piece of "art". The person who made it could literally spew out 100's of those by just throwing a bucket of blue paint onto a canvas. There is nothing artistic or genius with that.

I fucking hate this retardation, it's not art just because you say it is. A shit in your hand is not magically art because you did it infront of 20+ people.

If you were baiting for (You)'s, you really got me on this one. Fuck you.

I can't say I like that picture myself, but it takes a lot more intelligence to create something striking than to laboriously reproduce a landscape.

>>37147666
I'm not that anon, but I get what he's saying. I truly believe most of us here could reproduce that art. I'm not saying it isn't art, but there's just blue with a line down the middle. I'd be curious to know how much thought actually went into it, cost of supplies, and justification for the price. I could do something very similar with little to no training.

You didn't have to deal with millions of foreigners with inhumanly low standards competing for almost every job there is. You had it easy and had a lot of choice by being able to get hired on the spot if you weren't a psycho or retarded, and by having a solid financial groundwork setup by the war generations before you. I have to deal with the extreme financial irresponsibility and selfishness of your generation, while you sit on your fat arse and yap on about the good ol' days where you didn't have to do any real work and getting a job or girlfriend was as easy as saying hi, do you want coffee? and then "i love you" a month later.

Tell them they ruined the world for everyone else and are just proving their guilt whenever they keep blaming millennials, or saying that the world will be shit after you die because you left the world worse then when you entered it.

There's millenias of actual art, and great art is still produced and shared away from (((money))).

Why would boomers be offended by anything 4chan does? We got Trump elected and that alone would make most them pop their first woody in decades. Because they were hippies in the 60s even though they've been hardcore Republicans since the 80s? Because the voters who made Brexit happen would hate paleoconservative website? Because the 3 presidents they've given us, Clinton, Bush, and Trump, all pursued strong deportation policies and saw blacks as superpredators?

>>37148793
4chan memed him into office and 4chan has always been conservative. We were as conservative in 07 as we are in 17 as old /n/ shows. People don't choose their politics based on what politicians do but on what politicians say. Really political parties are like sports teams and ideologies are just soda brand names.
>>37148705
1945-1964 although 1945-1959 is more reliable.

Baby boomers are in their mid 50s and early 70s. They've got about 25 years at life left and probably even more thanks to medical advances. Since old people hold most of the money and political power we'll be dealing with them until 2040. Then Gen X comes into power for some time before Millennials and then finally us Gen Z types in the late 21st century.

>Say Vietnam was for profit

Tie these together. Kennedy started the Vietnam war. Which he did. But JFK gets lauded as the 2nd coming since he got shot.

>The Beatles weren't that good a band.

They're fine, but they're JUST a big band from that era. No better or worse than shit today. The Beatles get hailed so highly because they're the bands of their childhood.

Future people are going to be all nostalgic about the best media ever, and it will just so happen to be the shit they grew up with.

I'm glad boomers are losing cultural relevance, since i'm sick of 60's and 70's shit being best music ever. But now we got Gen X wanking instead with Nirvana as best band ever.
>>
>>37147666

the idea of art isn't "what it's worth", it's "what people are willing to pay for it"

and most of the time, people are willing to pay for shit on a canvas, if it's a famous artist that did it

why do newfags try so hard to prove they aren't newfags and always fail? FYI: 4chan had always been more left and/or pro-anarchism than conservative until a couple of years ago.
>>
>>37144932
Pretty old guy here -- not a "boomer" but kind close to it.

>The Beatles weren't that good a band.
I consider them to be meh. Innovative for their time, but definitely not the epic band that many people idolize them as.

>Say Vietnam was for profit
Well duh.

>Kennedy was a bad president.
He was really good at giving people hope. But as we know from Obama, just because you give a lot of people hope doesn't necessarily mean that you'll be a good president. Kennedy was the first president who was totally beholden to the Military-Industrial-Intelligence complex, as, of course, all presidents after him were also. That's quite ironic, because the final thing that Kennedy's predecessor said was a stern warning to America that we were all in grave danger of exactly that happening.

>"I'm going to live at home forever."
I don't get this one. Boomers never said that. Boomers were by far the most mobile generation in history up to that point. Really, Boomers were the first generation who, en masse, decided to leave their home towns and concentrate in more urban areas -- effectively hollowing out a huge number of small and middle-sized America cities and turning them into ghost towns. Their mass migration behavior was the primary event that determined the evolution of American cities during the 20th century.

I mean you aren't wrong but I would say 4chan is more politically contrarian than just left or right.

4chan in my eyes has always been the opposite of the flavour of the month, and since the left has been dominating politics in recent times the culture reflects that.

4chanians have always opposed the people who want to censor and limit everything. Back in 06-08 it was Jack Thompson and his ilk, now its the liberals. It doesnt really have anything to do with politics except that anons want to be able to express themselves without the thought police or the actual police showing up, or to see past freedoms and opportunities curtailed (see: piracy. Posting offensive things on the web)

Friendly reminder that all that expensive art exists solely for the purpose of money laundering. If you actually pay any attention to what it looks like, you're missing the point. It's just a vehicle that rich people use to move money around and make it look legitimate.
