I've noticed that especially aimed towards men, old people are just absolutely cancerous. After having lived with my aunt to help keep her at home for a year, I figured out fast how disgusting old people can be. Ignorant, stupid, childish, rude, demanding, and then add in some hatred of young people and you get an old person. I think they're far outliving their normal age limit thanks to the medical advances fucking all younger people over. We get our inheritance later, we have trouble having children and caring for them, because our parents expect us to drop everything and help care for them 10-15 years, and we get oppressed by an older population that won't let us change the country in the ways we want to. Honestly, that last part is the worst of it. Too many old people hold down the best jobs, and are still in positions of power. Their thinking is incredibly archaic, and doesn't line up with 90% of younger men and women in America. Why is there even a minimum age limit imposed on our presidents? I don't want Joe Biden at his age to be president. He's ancient and his policies are going to favor what old people want, and not the young people that have to deal with them.
This is just my personal experience with older people, and I'm sure many of you haven't dropped everything to try and help someone you thought you knew and cared about. It can be really really terrible. I gained weight, I lost income to help care for her, I had next to no free-time, and I was constantly insulted for being a young man, which I heavily resented her for and still do. Do any others think that old people are really just destroying the country for the younger generation? If not, what else can you blame for the way the country has been heading? Birth rates are down, feminism is up, hatred of men is up, and we're finally seeing people leaving America in droves.
Also, has anyone wondered where exactly our taxes are fucking going? One of the highest taxes in the world and yet we still have nothing to show for it. Where's our cheap healthcare? Where's our fast public transportation like bullet trains? If I lived in Europe, I could visit many different cities by train and add some variety to my life. In America, I have to drive on crowded freeways for hours and deal with the constant threat of a wreck. America seems far behind the times thanks to companies wanting to milk car, gas, and oil sales for as long as possible. I do think America needs to purge that shit and focus on actually improving social growth by improving public transportation and healthcare. Rework the fucking healthcare, for God's sake. It's terrible! I don't even care if every single car company leaves America because of public transportation, because where are they going to go? Not many other countries still need cars, so good luck to those money-grubbing bastards.
