is true ... but alas every generation makes it worse.
Am Gen x, 30 years ago I assumed that when the old boomers died off things would be better as we took over. Now Im left watching horrified as Gen X just helps make it even worse and I hear Gen Z repeating the same inane missives my gen did at an early age.
It's the thing that moved me from a slightly right of center 20yr old to a left green supporter here in Australia at 58. More of the same stupidity won't do anything but make it worse.
We didn't start the Fire (boomer Joel song) might be true but we're making it worse by just pouring more fuel on said fire.
