In what way does this somehow make it not be obnoxious as fuck to play tiktok scrolls in public?

I've said it quite a few times now so listen up.

This hypothetical person in the green text is in the wrong. However my issue is that it is painted as an issue with the generation rather than just plain human decency. This could be an issue with anyone. It's deliberately used to paint the generation in a negative light and is an attempt at pretty tribalism that has been tried with every generation.

This tactic has been used to separate generations and create tribalism especially politically for years and I do not condone it.

It's just how humans work. In your zealousy you became what you hated

Yeah absolutely humans are predisposed to tribalism, the issue is when you allow that predisposition to be weaponized.

Nobody is conspiring to wedge the generations brother

If you don't think anyone weaponizes tribalism you haven't seen the GOP messaging over at least the last 8 years
