boomerflake

Portmanteau of ‘boomer’ and ‘snowflake.’

It’s common knowledge that Trump-loving boomers often use words like ‘snowflake’ to disparage members of younger generations who stand up for basic decency and human rights or get offended when those values are violated or attacked.

‘Boomerflake’ is a word for a particular kind of boomer - one who has absolutely no respect for people who aren’t white, middle-aged, natural-born, and wealthy, but also erupts in righteous indignation every time someone challenges his hegemony or points out his prejudices.

Middle-Aged Asshole: Obama was a Muslim. ‘Hussein’ is Obama’s middle name and it was also Saddam Hussein’s last name. Therefore by the transitive property of bullshit, Obama is Muslim and Crowdstrike orchestrated the September 11th terrorist attacks.

Ordinary Millennial: OK boomer.

Middle-Aged Asshole: That’s ageist! I’m a member of the greatest generation! We invented mortgage-backed securities and sought the answer to life’s big question: ‘what if we had ALL the money?’

Millennial: OK boomerflake.
