Re: Do you see yourself bashing the younger generation as you get older?
Actually yes though honestly it could be me becoming more of a cynical arsehole as much as the kids today being spoiled self concerned sheltered and soft little techno twats :-X I think it may be common for every aging generation to look at the current with a smirk and a shake of the head at the very least. We're not superior, just seen more and traveled longer. Literally one hour ago I had a 20 yr old tech come to me asking for 'help' with a dog saying "Your so much faster with it than I am so figured I'd just follow" ??? I said well, I'm also twice your age and weight with twice the load. I work circles around soft callous free 20 something's all day. To be content to 'follow' and make no attempt to learn for the next time is a terrible mindset.

I pointed out 'forced' was an abstract concept in the example given, and as my argument was that the 'Cultural Marxism' you write of is abstract, it was fair to say you will 'force' something on your children to further my case.
That said, I hope you did not take offence. I used force in single quotations because the term used in this context does not mean what is generally considered its meaning, it is abstract.
I was speaking of being a role model for my kids, not a dictator. But I suspect all of this is very abstract to you, because you're not here with me face to face to have a conversation where you can discern tone and body language and understand where I'm coming from.
I didn't take offense, I just think you've decided to hit on some very trivial things instead of taking in the whole picture and you could have done that by mistake or on purpose, neither would make you a bad person of course.
"Cultural Marxism" isn't abstract, it's victimhood plain and simple. If there's a woman that feels she hasn't achieved what she should have then she should blame the patriarchy. If there's a black that feels the same way they should blame white people. If there's an LGBT that feels that way then they should blame the cisgendered. It's all about being a victim and dividing up regular everyday society so that a political minority group (in this case Communists/Socialists) can take charge and ruin everything as is typical of that form of rule.

So you think it is about labels, and yet you use them as well! The 'Cultural Marxism' you describe seems to be a defence you use to make up for perceived shortcomings; they are abstract thoughts and observations that you place in reality.
As for a Socialist and Communists taking charge, I think that is laughable. Socialists love nothing more than being the opposition and finding fault, and Communists in both the USA and UK are an irrelevance.
Re: Do you see yourself bashing the younger generation as you get older?
What a bunch of miserable cunts.
Which is exactly what I thought of the older generation when I was younger. You turn into them, they turn into you. That's it.

Apparently the Pope shares my views on unbridled capitalism. Not sure if that's good or bad lol

I don't mean that you are vapid or obnoxious, but while they are fixated by their phones you are just as distracted by the idea that leftists and commies and anyone who does not see the world like you do, is obviously irrelevant and can just be dismissed like a cheap sim card, whilst you buy their music, watch their films,read their books and admire their art as though it was created in a vacuum.
See even I find myself bashing the younger generation as I get older :p

What conclusions did the past generations have that I dismiss?
What young authors do I read? Musicians do I listen to? Movies I watch? Sure I see commies on tv every so often, Alec Baldwin is one, although he like most American lefties prefers the term "Progressive" :rolleyes: I think he's a fine actor.....he just doesn't know fuck all about politics and the economy because he doesn't live in that realm.

Hard to believe that we live in a world where this....

.....is a problem. Not starvation, not helping the sick, not poverty, not education, not unemployment...no a 19 year old Aussie is breaking down because of fucking a social media addiction.
Yes, I HATE this new generation.....I despise them....there is no hope for a lot of them.

On this topic, I could NOT agree more with Lyle. Lyle you got this right. Dead on right. A lot of Them ARE all a bunch of vile little rats. And keep getting more vile and rat-like.

They are an entire generation without purpose....no sex, no work, no family, no religion, no education, nothing....they have no foundation in the real world and my God that is scary.
Why? (some may ask)
Because they do not have a foundation, because they do not have purpose or direction....they don't value their own lives because there is nothing there TO value so how can they value anyone else's life?
