No, it's not because of my age. Young people these days are even more in-your-face, "toxic", nasty etc than the teens I knew growing up. I don't think this really changes based on their politics

Basically young people have less chill today than they did 20 years ago

This extends to every form of media. Kids shows like Amphibia and other Disney channel stuff have faster dialogue and animation sequences than stuff from 20 years ago.

Video games: FPS shooters have become faster. Halo was the standard back in 2003, but the Call of Duty overtook it to become way more popular. CoD is way faster paced and you die in 2 shots instead of Halo's 20 or so.

MOBAs: the entire genre is a symptom of this.

Overwatch: combining MOBAs with FPS is also a symptom of this, the amount of stuff you need to pay attention to is insanely high

Everything 20 years ago, and even 10 years ago, was just way slower and normal.

    This thread is fucking hilarious. I work with kids they are so much better than any generation in a while.

    The things they have less chill for are, with few exceptions, things that it actually suck to be chill about, like homophobia for example. The fact that they're less chill is a good thing.

    I don't know what this has to do with video games or children's cartoons either stop thinking about both of those things.

        Not only is it no longer normal it's considered like terminally lame and kind of pathetic

          In certain state legislators that is a thing thats happening right now.

          We need to bring back "We're here. We're queer. Get used to it."
