Prime age to get their information from Facebook.

Probably not a great age to be starting a fourteen year prison sentence at, but they should have thought about that before trying to overthrow our democracy I guess

To be fair the first two generations in this meme were raging alcoholics who beat the shit out of their kids and wives. Oh and the whole racists as fuck part.

Is there a great age to do that? Seems to me that the older you are, the less of your real life is lost.

This same generation kept repeating shit like "don't believe everything you read on the internet" back in the dial up days. Good advice I took to heart.

Now my own mother believes AOC wants to ban cows because they fart a lot.

Not even the Internet. They told everyone not to believe everything they see on TV. Drilled it into our heads for years.

Now they're plastered to the easychair, glued to fox bobblehead shows 24/7 getting angry over nonsense.
