I've never quite understood why saying something like this is still socially acceptable.
I know that my own Mum and Dad didn't vote for the current government nor do they support blunt, poorly thought out Tory policy. Yet I know so gen z and millennial people that do.
If you want to apologise for something why don't you take responsibility for your own ageism, it's repellent.
- kwere 4y agotirrany of majority is a thing, Boomers are one of the majority groups in society thanks to their lower childbirth rate. Hoping their biasies die with them of old age is a meek statement. I'm personally really angry at the amount of debt it will be left as inheritance by our subsidized european parents/grandparents among a lot of other "intergenerational gifts".
