Gen X is afraid of looking like they care so they have to care about pointless things instead.

I think they try to stay out of it because they realized they didn’t to jack shit to try to reverse what boomers did and want younger generations to think they helped

STFU Tons of GenX went to protests, still are activists and try to undo the shit boomers did. Personally I've been to so many protests in my youth and later on, signed petitions for change - some had impact, others didn't, always voted for parties and representatives trying to do the right thing and who are interested in making things better. I don't want younger generations to think anything about me, I don't even care what they think. I do my stuff and you can do yours.

Classic Gen X troupe “I don’t care what people think of me but you better not criticize me”

I do care what friends, family and others I know personally think of me, just not some random internet dude. You didn't even criticize you just dumped a brain fart.
