Is the current "OK Boomer" a Russian PYSOP

[bluecoat_fan]

Much like Bernie vs Hillary PYSOP? If so, what is the benefit to disrupt the two groups,?

[tblue37]

1. I'm a Boomer, and I think it's funny and clever. I also think I might start a new meme.

What do you think of "Roger dodger, codger?"

[cwydro]

2. I know; I don't get the fuss.

I’m on the young end of Boomerism lol, but a Boomer nonetheless, and I find it funny as hell.

Pretty silly Psyops idea if that’s the case.

[bluecoat_fan]

17. The Hillary vs Bernie operation wasn't so silly, it probably worked.

Just looking fora politically why to divided boomers vs millenials to help the motherland.

[fleur-de-lisa]

7. I heard a great response to "okay boomer"

“Okay tide pod”

[MontanaMama]

30. That's funny as hell.

I’m on it.

[Autumn]

3. No, not at all, it's FAF. I love it and I'm a Boomer, my kids are even telling me that.

[Red Mountain]

4. I think it could spark some healthy conversations....

so probably not what the Russians are looking for.

[Fozzledick]

5. Or is it a Sith plot?

[cwydro]

13. Bwahaha!

I love it!

[Chemisse]

6. I'm glad everyone is so pleased with it, but I'm uncomfortable with anything that divides us.

Categorizing people so you can point to how they are different from you is divisive. It can be harmless - or it can lead to atrocities. It would not surprise me if Russia throws everything at us they can think of, and see what gets us in a lather.

14. I write software for a living and it would be soooo easy to fool you

All social media have API and I can build you a sock puppet, add some Watson AI and a I become A THOUSAND! I post, Watson AI alters to add southerners, or NYC dialect and a become the leader of a virtual clan. How much does it take to tip your neurochemical balance to make you join my tribe? Is it thousand, I bet I could look like a millions, would you follow a million? Sacred, yes you should be....

[Chemisse]

33. Wow. That is disturbing, but I can believe it.

How do we even guard against such manipulations?

[ismnotwasm]

8. No

It’s hella funny actually. Everybody over 40 is a “boomer”

[Xolodno]

25. Bullshit.

I'm over 40 and Gen X. Forget us at your peril, after your Boomer boss retires...we are your new boss.

The American generations covered in the theory are:


The Greatest Generation (born circa 1901 to 1924)
Silent Generation (circa 1925 to 1945)
Baby Boomers (circa 1946 to 1964)
Generation X (circa 1965 to 1985)
The Millennial Generation (circa 1985 to 2000).

9. The aim would be to divide Dems.; pit one generation against another

It seems to not be going as planned, if it's a pysop.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

10. LMAOOOOOO

[EmeraldCoaster]

11. Actually Boomers

Were born in 1946 to 1964.
Anything that divides us is suspect. I wouldn't call a 40 something a boomer. I am just sayin

[bluecoat_fan]

15. I am of Scooby Do and Racer X Generation, not Boomer

Boomers did the duck and cover freak show.. I feel their pain, but they are not of Scooby Do.

[Polybius]

21. The OP didn't day they weren't between 1946 and 1964

Nor did he say they were 40 somethings. Of course they're not 40-somethings, doesn't everyone know that?

[GusBob]

12. I think the Russkies are behind that crying screaming lady mad at cat

Long game

[Chiyo-chichi]

16. ...and "Laurel or Yanni."

They must be behind that, too.

[bluecoat_fan]

19. Russkies, a term I have not heard for a long time...

There was a time warriors would not drink with a "Russian Basterd", now they are called GOP and chant Lock Her Up. Very odd times I think.

[ansible]

18. I work in IT and it's a nightmare dealing with boomers

Are you serious? Boomers have been shitting on those "dang young millenials" for years now.

[Codeine]

20. Maybe young people are fed up with

the diet of economic bullshit and self-righteous abuse they’re being served?

It’s just a snide meme. It won’t hurt the Boomers; they’ll still own and control everything and suck up a lion’s share of resources for at least a couple more decades regardless of a funny intarwebz slogan.

[ck4829]

22. Nah, that couldn't be it

[ck4829]

23. Is that kind of like how "Millennials are killing X" is a Russian PSYOP?

(Crafted from actual "millennials are killing X" headlines)

Or is talking about the "Millennials are killing X" meme the Russian PSYOP?

[dewsgirl]

26. Wow those millenials sound hella awful. 😈

[GaYellowDawg]

24. If it is...

...then you just reply, “OK Boris.”

[dewsgirl]

27. +1

[Eyeball_Kid]

28. I'm a boomer,

and I have no idea what you're all talking about.

[braddy]

29. Sex, race, age, bigotry. This time it is different, it always is, forever.

[tableturner]

31. My retort: "Okay, Boomer spawn".

[Dream Girl]

32. I wondered that mys of. I wouldn't put it past me. Seeing divisions is keys.

Oiled/young, black/white, Latino/ango, immigrants, Urban/rural. Part of their playbook
