Although you mentioned the word "nuance" in your comments, I don't find your world view particularly nuanced, especially since it's an extremely common one (in US culture I'm aware of it's the standard world view), also one I grew out of throughout my life. As you might agree, it's particularly hard to agree with someone when you used to agree with them and changed your view later with conviction. I imagine this is also why you think my view is un-nuanced.
However, please note that cutting people out of discussion "because this is something you'll learn as you age" is not a great way to convince them of something (which may not be your goal).
- civilized 5y agoI'm not excluding you from the discussion in the slightest. You've made assertions and I've engaged with those assertions. Because, despite whatever little wisdom I've gained from age, I'm still curious and interested in learning from different perspectives. You've ignored the majority of what I've said, including everything about how age is not a bright dividing line between the wise and the foolish. Evidently you want to keep believing what you believe. So, go ahead and do that. I really can't stop you and don't wish to.
