Hey, I organized Students Against War and got kids to block recruitment booths and stuff. Did solidarity walk outs during teachers strikes etc. What you're saying is true butnit cuts both ways. If you're also a youth it's easy as hell to organics with nothing else to do.
My academic training is failing me and I’m blanking on the name of the theory but in sociology - specifically the study of political movements - we have a whole codex of demographic factors that make a person more or less likely to take part in disruptive political action. Namely it comes down to how much do you have to lose? and naturally the youth are a lot freer in their considerations because they haven’t had time to buy property/start a family and all that

You can be an activist as a teen, and that's good. That was very awesome of you.
But most of the time, teens fighting back is just being an overgrown 5 year old who doesn't want to learn math or take a nap.
Late reply, I don't disagree at all, but if you are a teenager on the ball, you can really harness that energy.
