    Everyone under 30 is terrified of global warming, everyone over 50 doesn't believe in it. The economic structure that put their grandparents in their home is utterly unavailable to them. We traded quaaludes for cocaine for meth for heroin for fentanyl, we traded free love for AIDs for incels.

Well, that was a depressing few sentences to read.
