General Discussion

It's the politics of caring about the environment and the traditional approach to politics. It's also a generalization. Not my intention to paint everyone with that same broad strokes.
My point is that the perspective and ideals of most people my age and older was shaped by a world that doesn't exist anymore.
Many that lived through the 50s and 60s and 70s and 80s, lived with compromising on sexism or racism or voting or redlining or women not being able to get a credit card without a man's permission.

When my dad left my mom in 1989, he cancelled their credit cards and drained their joint accounts and my mom didn't even have a say in it and no power to stop it.
That isn't the world we live in now.

My point is that our world, the world we grew up in, is not their world and the world they want and how they get there, is different. Their ideas and perspectives are different. We need to pass on the baton to the next generation and let them find their own way.
