I can't speak for others but the reason I've used boomer as a slur, if you can even call it that, in the past is because they don't see the fight you mentioned as necessary. You can't be allies with someone who doesn't think there's a problem to be fixed. It would be one thing if we were fighting the same battle in different ways but that's not what's happening. They're actively helping the other side win.
