    Nah, a fuck ton of people have CPTSD from persistent and consistent narcissistic abuse from their Boomer parents and those who think and act like them.

    Its why 1/4 to 1/3 of millennials and gen z have gone no contact with at least one of their parents.

    This is a legitimate phenomenon of the Boomer generation being disproportionately absurdly selfish and abusive.

    If you’re a millennial and your grandparents are still alive, pretty good chance they’re no where near as fundamentally shitty and horrible as your parents are… significantly less people going no contact with the grandparents.

    There can be no solidarity with an abuser.
