Reminds me that the whole concept of generations is something manufactured of whole cloth and meant to divide us, but more than that, that real people are compassionate and understanding. All that stuff is just fake.

It gives me hope for unity.

    Indeed. While it is true that different generations express different views(like older generation being 63% in support of death penalty, while younger 60% against), often such division is artifitially created to create class infighting.

    I really hope when people who were growing up with internet(and less intoxicated with lead) will come in power, political direction will change to improving quality of life and away for neofeudalism.

      The stat in combination with the post just makes me think. Those 60% of younger people might have 37% of older generations agreeing with their views. Or at least being neutral. People are not just their generation, and people of all ages have individual differences and places where they differ from the norm. Somewhere, someone not in your generation agrees with you.
