bummer now some random on lemmy who still doesn't know me thinks im an old fuddy duddy, what will i do!

surely this feedback is from a credible source with my own best interests in mind, i will certainly take your rando advice to heart.

i'm so glad i plan my life choices around what strangers on social media think. this'll work out great!

(do you get the point i'm trying to make? no matter how correct you are (or you think you are), you might as well be shouting at the wall. who the fuck would actually take your life advice to heart? you have no idea who we are; why would we change our behavior based on your opinion?)

I think on some level you know this but you just wanna preach. maybe you should have this conversation with someone special in your life. or maybe.... you know, the positions we argue most fervently are often ones we're trying to convince ourselves of. since we're giving unsolicited life advice, maybe think on that one?

I don't expect you to change because you read my comment. I just know that as time goes on, you will be hearing this more and more from more and more people. Eventually, it will come from people you know and care about. At some point, you may decide to be self-reflective and begin to think about your place in this world and what the consequences of your actions are. Maybe you won't though, I have an elderly neighbor that literally spits every time he sees an Asian person, maybe you will double down on your behavior into old age and be someone else's old neighbor that is stuck in the past being endlessly bitter towards the world for evolving without you.

At any rate, comments like mine are just sign posts on the road. The younger generation is already pissed at the selfish older generations. It's just the beginning, more signs are coming.
