The assumption that old people are inherently right wing and young people are inherently left wing is just wrong. Correlating age with political beliefs is a fucking pseudoscience, and so is the whole concept of generations like boomers and zoomers. Their marketing terms, the baby boom was a uniquely United States thing and to apply that term to 20 odd years of people from across the world is just factually wrong. We got to stop self identifying with these terms because they are ageist and they divide us and they allow for shitty excuses like “it’s just their generation” to excuse shitty behavior.

What’s the point of this? Stop dunking on old people. Old people aren’t inherently reactionary.

    After you get out of high school you're old. Your body starts falling apart and you may as well die.

      60% of hexbear is still in high school to be fair. 18 to them is like 40 to a regular person.

        That would be interesting, to do a "how old are you" demographics poll for the Hexbears
