Many of us are aware, but we have some history and experience behind us to bolster our attitude. Also, young people are more aware of what’s going on where we used to mainly judge things by our local environment.
I thought life was rough as a young man in 90s America! Well, that seemed to be the peak. :(
My mom was like… “We can’t afford to buy a home in today’s world”. My parents have had 2 homes in my life and now they are trailer people. I don’t see where they think wealth is going, to the bottom? Or the top 1%? We NEED to cap capitalism in the kneecaps
They could just be disassociating. Escapism is very real too, and I know plenty of people around my age that would just rather not think about the issues at hand when they feel that they are completely powerless.
Yeah a few aware older folks get it.

You realize both of those are coping mechanisms to deal with anxiety and depression, right?
I’ve spoken to a lot of older people who have outright said they don’t give a shit because they won’t be around to deal with it
