I think it's the difference between punching down and punching up. Boomers in general have far more money and power than the people using the term. So complaining that it's ageist, and comparing it to a homophobic slur will get you about as much traction as white people being offended by cracker, and comparing it to slurs used against African Americans.
Exactly this.
