I think the down votes are because even though some points are salient it still gives off a vibe of “get off my lawn!” This isn’t helped by the comment above pointing out that all of our parents thought that we were vapid and shallow, without an understanding of the world, molded by television and heavy metal.
Like the points are valid but by casting out across an entire generation… Many members of which can vote and drive and are part of society… It really weakens the message. I want better for the generation that comes after mine. They are being brainwashed in much the same way I was and that should stop. But also I was brainwashed and the world hasn’t collapsed yet. Maybe it won’t collapse with the next generation, maybe not the one after and hopefully none of our worst fears come to pass.
I hope it’s enough that right now we are just a rumble beneath hearing that pushes the world towards a future where everyone is included in the benefits of our society.
