Society is healing.
Whilst I think that may well be true, the young people I meet (the ones I can remember, at least) have an alarming disconnect with reality.
I don't mean that in the sense that they don't appreciate how the world works. It's more in the sense that they perhaps don't appreciate how the world could work or what that may end up looking like in reality.
It's all well and good demanding massive change, the destruction of the current systems etc. This could be done.
It's the acceptance that everything would be harder yet more emotionally rewarding that's the problem.
Everyone still wants celebrity lifestyle. In one form or another.
