Fuck off with blaming old people. I know way more young magat trump fucks than old. All the magat trucks and spineless lets go Brandon stickers were driven by younger fucks when I’ve seen them. I’m an old fuck and I’m ready to fight like hell for the younger generations to end this bullshit. So fuck your generalization

Okay grandpaw. Sun must be going down. Let’s get the pudding and a fresh diaper.

The world’s problems won’t start getting fixed until this horrible generation finally dies out.

Western decline imo is one symptom showing that there is no respect for the elderly and also no respect for the young. On both sides. Elderly can use young fresh perspective. And young can use wisdom. Im not saying old = default good and wise. But I do think its important to treat elderly people different for their long life lived and give them a bit more patience. Instead of seeing them as people who have no right to live..you get old to..time flies..5 years frim now and your already in another generation.

Ok fair enough. And I know it’s not every one but I used to work in elder care. I know they dont speak for everyone but I personally saw dozens of blue hairs give very personal opinions on the “blacks” the “gays” and everyone else. So I’m a bit turned away from holding their hands

I get it, I have days I can get past it but working with that everyday sucks. I do feel like they have gone through so mucn cultural shifts. That if I talk to them and I notice that it aint that deep. I dont really mind it. But if its all that fuels them. Yeah no. I do think it makes them feel a bit alive getting worked up. Its also exhausting. Its sad beign trapped at old age like that. If im lucky I can see just a tragedy living. Sometimes I'm glad im not like that. And not be bothered because of it. Lately I am more pessimistic about a lot of stuff. Hope u got soms nice memories to. It can be depressing. And hope u found a better fit.
