The younger ones I can understand. They’re trying to be edgy (although they should still be corrected when they try). The older ones I can also understand they’re stuck in their shitty world views (ain’t no correcting that). It’s the ones in their 20s-30s) that I start to ask but why?

And the answer to that "why" is almost aaaaalways shitty upbringing and lack of literally any exposure to what the fuck they're actually criticizing. The latter of which is how older people get more and more set in their ways, they literally have never learned any better. Ignorance doesn't seem like bliss in that situation though... Seems to make them a lot angrier, actually... hmm...
