I heard a boomer talk about how easy kids have it these days. These people need to shut the fuck up.

Kids now have it so fucking hard. They're watching people get murdered in HD, including other kids, because you can't scrub that completely off of the internet. They're still watching loved ones get sick and die from a once-manageable virus after having spent years of school on Zoom. They're witnessing the devastation of climate change. They're facing a future that seems to be growing bleaker by the day.

In short, they're forced to reap what previous generations have sown. Adults who claimed to care about the well-being of children stole their future for profit and kicked out the ladder, knowing full well they won't have to see the worst of what they set into motion. But yeah, kids these days have it easy because they have phones and physical abuse is slightly regulated.
