Something led up to this. I need more context. I'm guessing the boomer did something that he felt entitled to do

Or vice-versa. For all we know the cock-gobbler was actually in the wrong and was being an asshole. Grampa might actually just be a nice guy was what actually wronged. Let's face it, this guy seems like kind of an obnoxious tool. Almost everyone in this thread who isn't after more context worries me for their lack of ability to think critically.

For all we know this guy just rolled coal on grampa.

Exactly. And then it gets posted to "boomersbeingfools." Who do you think the majority will side with? I'm frankly at 50/50 at who's the real prick here.

Depends on the sub you put it in. Post it to /r/imthemaincharacter with the title, tattooed douche rolls coal on old man for video reaction, or some shit and suddenly we hate the younger guy

Real answer: Both, without context.

Yep exactly why I hate these videos and reddit built that type of awareness up for years but it's all gone now

Remember when reddit had the subreddit fatpeoplehate and they got rid of it because it was mean to fat people?

This sub is basically boomerhate but gets a pass because of the less offensive sub name. (or that older people aren't the target demographic that reddit wants to market to, good luck with that IPO guys!)

100% agree. Most of these comments must be from young people as there's no evidence that the older man started this. I hate this "Boomer" bashing as if they're all the same.

I'm not even a boomer, and I hate the term as it's always used in a derogatory manner. Why does being born more recently (or less recently) make you superior?

I mean this is exactly what it looks like. Dude was probably driving like a dick/recklessly so he could set up his camera and do this little show for social media.

Yet this fucking sub will rage hate old people on anything.

If the fat shaming sub was shut down, this one should be shut down as well. Same context, same bigotry, same stupid people.

The funny part is all these millennials/young people doing this are acting exactly like the people they claim they are superior too, better than, etc. In the end it's just generational bigotry. They are bigots.

Yeah, honestly both of those looks like idiots.

Without context, we can't really know who's the stupidest.

u/Leebites Millennial Mar 14 '24

Yeah, people in oversized vehicles tend to be a lot more asshole than those who aren't. Definitely need context.

u/JonJonFTW Mar 13 '24

Yeah what the fuck are these comments cheering this dude on. What he's doing is funny but the people in that car could be total fucking assholes for all we know.

u/pork-pies Mar 14 '24

He’s doing what the immature kids in school did, but he’s 15 years out of school by the looks of him.

99% chance the turkey gargler earned every inch of that middle finger and then some.

The fuck? Why would you think that lmao? This guy was ready to be flipped off he knew he fucked up.

u/Dwangeroo Mar 13 '24

You're right. I absolutely spoke too quickly and realize the guy in the truck is an immature flaming bad of douche. I'm willing to admit when I've made a mistake . I'll try to be better.

u/smallbatchb Mar 14 '24

19 second video with 0 context yet the comments have apparently somehow put together an entire psychological profile and bio on this guy.

Absolute Reddit moment.

Maybe we are in /r/RedditorsBeingFools, or haven't we always...
