Seriously. Can we stop this ridiculous obsession with “generational” comparisons, please, and the click bait is that goes with it? Let’s instead start learning empathy and stop trying to force fit everything into an arbitrary category. Can we really not, collectively, as a species, grasp nuance and the eternally changing state of everything?
Probably not, but here’s to hoping.

nassim taleb calls it “over-platonification,” expecting everything to meet some platonic ideal. it is absolutely pervasive. this is another great example of it

Iaranis, I’m not speaking to you directly. Instead, I want to expand on your eloquent and pleasant message.
It amazes me how quickly some are willing to accept age related generalizations and reject generalizations based on other criteria like race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, etc. I’ve been around long enough to understand that all of it is a weird control mechanism. I’ve known people nearing the end of their days that spent a lifetime advocating for all the right things. That should be enough for folks to understand that we are all immature, flawed, and prone to bias; while capable of fostering positive change.
Don’t marginalize anyone, young or old because of their age. We all get the same short life to try to live to its fullest.
