Old people romanticize the past.
Young people romanticize the future.
- lotsofpulp 3y ago> Young people romanticize the future. Does not seem to be the zeitgeist of online discourse (presumably, in places that a sufficiently representative portion of young people express thoughts).
- jancsika 3y agoYes, with the caveats that young people also romanticize the past, and old people also romanticize the future.
- flohofwoe 3y ago> Young people romanticize the future. I have the impression that young people currently are much more pessimistic about the future than the 'old-fart-me' ever was (except for that time in the 80's when an all out nuclear war just seemed right around the corner for a while).
