"I found politics of baby boomers more collegial ... as they respect the other side." 
You must be joking?
The Globe comments section is heavily represented by boomers. It is easy to tell by their frequent references to the idyllic past, and their opposition to any idea that has a hint of change.
They are small-minded, whiny and craven creatures, with million dollar homes, cottages, defined benefit pension plans, pampered with cradle-to-grave services, and resentful that the world has changed.
Their national anthem is: "I got mine, and I don't want anyone else to get a piece of the pie."
Words like, 'immigrants,' 'taxes,' 'trans,' 'CBC,' 'human rights,' trigger paroxysms of seething anger in most boomers on here. They cry themselves to sleep every night, asking: "Why, why, why can't things be like they used to be."
"Collegial" is the antithesis of their being.
Fortunately, as these younger leaders show, the boomers' time on the stage is almost done.
