don’t listen to your elders, they’re the dipshits that have the planet in this mess politically and particularly ecologically, they don’t know shit.

Okay youngins make sure you do the opposite of what everyone says in this threat! I agree with you but I’m also just being silly . Maybe the better argument is be selective as to which elders you listen to.

As someone raised by a very ignorant silent generation grandfather, there is a middleish ground. Listen to the stories. The lesson you may take may not be the intended but can be instructive. What is important to remember is their world no longer exists so take the advice with a grain of salt. While I am just as mad as anyone else with the mess we have been left, close personal older family and friends can still provide useful advice. Just… Weigh it out with your loved experience. Use what serves you.
