this is a good question ... my first instinct would be a boomer, born in 1956 probably. man, life would be EASY.

but then, thinking about it, anytime in the past would be more painful even than today, because of the lack of rights and social progress so many people would have.

so its tough, economically, being a boomer dude would mean i'd be doing 100x times better, but everyone i cared about would be doing WAY worse. unlike today, where everyone i know is doing a lot better, but we all are doing way worse economically.


and projecting forward, with the death of the American empire, and climate change, those trends are only going to accelerate. everything will get more expensive, the middle class will die in the next generation, and while social justice will advance, the price is that everyone is slowly becoming a serf. gay serfs will be fine socially, but they will still be serfs. the future isnt looking any better frankly.

unless you are born rich. i mean being born rich is a cheat code for any generation.
