The boomers have completely destroyed the illusion of age equaling wisdom. They're the generation most responsible for today, and today is a shitshow of unbridled narcissism.

What do you have against Xi? He is the only one not bombing anyone, not meddling in any country internal affairs, and focusing in his own country and people.
