Same here, always politically knowledgeable, but this has been the impetus of shouting out in pain. I blame the younger generation for not having it as rough, not living without the adversity that many of us in the older generation have firsthand knowledge of. They do not know how free they really are. Although, I will say this, we were a lot freer in that as children, we enjoyed the ability to be gone all day, travel and meet new people in ways today’s youth will only experience on the other side of the cell phone screen.
That is not a before and then after tyrant effect. That I attribute to the slow erosion of community, a turn inwards, isolation. If we had corrected for that and really became accepting of the changing complexions of our neighbors, we would not be where we are right now.
