Disney heiress Abigail Disney has a message for all of her fellow Baby Boomers out there. Most recently, a trend has been taking place on social media of a phrase called “OK, boomer.” It mostly consists of anyone younger than boomer-age responding to someone who is a boomer with that phrase. To anyone getting actually offended by this phrase, Abigail says, “How about you guys sit the [expletive] down and let the kids drive.”

The 59-year-old took to Twitter for a very blunt rant. She criticizes members of her own generation for opposing younger people’s “understandable resentment” toward them. “When did you get so easily triggered?” she asks.

I’m a boomer. I think OK, boomer is hilarious. Just the right amount of irreverence. We dropped the ball on gun violence, climate change and income inequality. We started with Woodstock but succumbed to the “greed is good” gang. For that we deserve unending ridicule,” someone says.

She suggests that CEO Bob Iger do the same and set aside some for Disney’s lowest-paid employees.
