I think it's frustration with younger men falling for the right-wing BS and throwing their support behind those causes. My generation went apathetic and nihilistic, not right wing.

When I was young we had to walk both ways up hill in bare feet and we liked it...

What was the question again, I have a poor memory these days

Could you link to those posts?

Can you repeat the question? I can't hear a thing with that damn rock-n'-roll racket...

People always think the group they're a part of can do no wrong. Like some middle class who think the upper class is bad for x and y thing but when they do the same to the lower class they think they're justified, and of course they try to find ways to call themselves the most oppressed class because poor people get assistance while they only get taxed (despite the fact that after taxes they still achieve a far higher living standard than the lower class).

propaganda by boommers and older Xers to deflect blame on to younger generations, it was milleneals for like 2 decades, then gen z in the 2020s. the source of the problems conservative boomers and silent generations.

It's never about millennials vs zoomers or males vs females

Honestly, I see people being quite optimistic about gen Z and Alpha. Most the whining comes from the right, with their "young people are destroying the [nonsense here] industry" and for brazenly treating other humans and people despite not all of them straight white christian cis men.

Personally, the worst things I see about the new generations is that young people are young. Someone who is 17 can't adult quite as well because they are literally not an adult. I've been an adult for longer than they've been alive, of course I'm better at it than them and dealing with things I've dealt with before are easier than new things. That's not a shortcoming, that's how time works.

Is it annoying to see a girl make all the mistakes I made when I was a girl? Yes damnit. Will telling them stop them? Didn't work for me, hence I made the mistakes too.

I've disliked young people since I was a young person myself. The 2000's were terrible and now times are worse. Now I'm old, it's my God given right to be crochety.

You're probably experiencing in-group bias, which can manifest in heightened sensitivity to criticism directed at one’s group, leading to perceptions that such critiques are exaggerated.
And your thinking is also affected by outgroup homogeneity bias, which is the tendency to view members of groups to which one does not belong as more similar to each other than they actually are.

I’d argue elders have shifted to fedi as it’s basicness and open structure feels like the old internet. No gimics, no monotisation etc.

And generally is a pretty easy going place.

However the more you use it the more you see factions and intolerance.

Are we mean to the young? I notice intolerance but tbh that’s really down to extreme chat.
