No, that was the Boomers. The reason that you get all these Boomer vs. Millenial articles is that Gen-X was comparatively a baby bust between the Boomers and the Millenials, such that Gen-X never were the largest generation in the population, and never dominated (and likely never will dominate) political or social influence. Earlier this year, Millenials passed Boomers to take the top spot in sheer numbers, something Gen-X never had.

Painting with much too broad a brush. I did no such thing.

All discussions of entire generations paint with too broad a brush. We're having a discussion in aggregate, not targeted at you personally.
Edit in reply:
The entire article is about painting millennials with a broad brush, written by a member of Generation X. Now you complain you're being stereotyped?
Give me a break.
They're also the ones writing these articles.
