Don’t get me wrong: I think nothing is more healthy for a society than a rebelling youth and all the “trouble” that comes with it. We’ve all been there.
But in times were edgy elders vote for Trump and carry no vision, morale or understanding besides mere platitudes like “tearing down everything”, “draining the swamp”, “building a wall” etc., all those calls for radical destruction without offering an alternative annoy the shit out of me.
“The boy was sanctimonious as only youth can be when descrying the faults of their elders.”
I read that once and always loved that quote.
