It's not a moot point though. The context of this discussion, is, will Gen X-ers in power be better than Boomers, and will Millenials be better than Gen X-ers and Boomers?
Greatest generation or silent generation vs Boomers was simply brought up as a reference point, as far as, do future generations usually take steps forward, or do they sometimes regress?
In that context, we are talking about overall mentality and deplorableness vs progressiveness, and are they likely to enact change for the better or not. Not, how did one generation respond in one (or two) instance(s) of war.
