    Boomers didn’t and still don’t think of video games at all unless they’re trying to moralise it and outlaw it.

    Jack Thompson Is the perfect example of a boomer and their relationship with video games.

      “Boomer” has changed meaning to “old” which I view as fine. Like the popular phrase “okay boomer” started out intentionally aimed at actual boomers and now it just refers to an outdated opinion or view. I don’t think anyone who says “boomer shooter” thinks that boomers played these.
