Please stop the generation blaming/shaming. It’s a “divide and conquer tactic”. Also, please notice a LOT of the people at the protests are “old people”. We don’t sit behind keyboards blaming, we actually get out and DO something. And, finally, do some research and look up who voted for MAGA. ✌️☮️
Governments are comprised of people. Like any other people they should be judged on their actions. Blanket statements about distrusting governments and politicians no matter what they actually do is no different than distrusting science and experts. It’s all part of how we got here.
Well no. Actually we aren’t supposed to trust the government. That’s why we have (in theory) a system of checks and balances. The whole point is that we rely on them and hope they’ll do the right thing, but we need to be paying some attention some of the time, because they will occasionally get things wrong.
Not only that, governments are comprised of people who are paid a fixed salary with no bonuses or incentives and strict conflict of interest rules whose literal only job is to work to make people’s lives collectively better.
Old people aren’t exactly “finger on the pulse” types

And they have been trained to hate government, science and experts.
The only one of those you should hate is the government.
