@corbden The more I think about this (apparent, from my anecdata) generational disparity, the more I think it's that the gap between haves and have-nots in the Boomer generation was largely set along demographic lines; they could effectively rely on whatever privilege they started with holding out & didn't mingle beyond it. Whereas late X-onward, post-Reagan, it became clear meritocracy was a lie as social groups mixed, & we accepted "minorities" (incl. women) "should" succeed. @cobweb @msbw
