    I'm in my 30s and I've never understood the whole "We were well-behaved and respectful back when we were kids" mentality. No. No we were not. I remember the kids in my high school being absolute sh*ts and looking for any opportunity to indulge in substances, hurl abuse and watch/act out violence. I'm not sure if teenagers today are that much better, but they're certainly no worse.
    Just remember, people in ancient Rome watched gladiators fight to the death and slaves get eaten by lions for entertainment. I think people today will be just fine if they watch the latest Saw or play the latest Mortal Kombat.

They fought with swords that were in poor condition to not harm each other seriously, so basically it is a myth that they fought to death

      Kids choosing to hang out more with friends or differimg opinions than their elders are see as delinquent.
      Childhood is seen as a UNIVERSAL experiemce, while adulthood is an INDIVIDUAL experience.

      2020 is only the beginning. In the US alone, 45% of renters face eviction, 49% in my home state and 59% in West Virginia. The unemployment and homelessness crisis caused by Corona will not unify a nation aware of the oligarchs influencing our plutocratic state, the lobbyists selling lies to kill us for profit. We know that even without Corona we have already doomed our earth and ourself. We know that bigotry and oppression have never left us. Knowing this, we will not return to what once was when a vaccine allows us to return to the streets. As we vote in an election decided before the world turned upside down, the homeless masses will speak to each other in hushed tones, and those once brainwashed by the false glory of conservatism will feel their belly ache from lack of food, realizing that platitudes cannot be consumed. America will shake and burn, riots will fill the streets as China grows in power. For if we do not escape our broken politics, the planet dies and so do we. And time and time again, it has been proven that we cannot escape our broken politics with peace.

      Rebecca Laguerre : I think i know what you're trying to say, and maybe this example can describe it.
      If the census was informal, and required each person to write short paragraphs that described their lives, then wouldn't every single collected anecdote, all 300,000,000 of them, when ordered and systematized, reveal the average age, household number, etc. of a country. Those anecdotes, when collected on a massive scale and when formalized, would yield data. I think this is what you mean, but, of course, put in my words.

    • @WhompingWalrus
      @WhompingWalrus 4 года назад +1

      A lot of data is just many many many anecdotes. The difference between anecdote and actual data is quantity & specificity, no? At least for the polled data used in statistical analysis. You have to be sure to analyze as few aspects & as many instances as possible, but if we're using "anecdote" in the sense of "one person's experience or story", then ye, I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

When I was a senior and my brother was an incoming freshman, my classmates told me his grade was the worst the school has ever seen. And now that my brother is a senior in high school, he tells me that the incoming freshmen are the worst grade the school has ever seen.
    I would have to say that there appears to be an interesting case of Juvenoia like attitude at this smaller scale too.
    I always thought about it as a bit ridiculous especially when it came to these bigger generational divides because it demands a generalization in the belief that your generation or one prior to it was somehow the best.

    This is all pretty much what I've been saying when people freak out about things kids do these days. It is other people of my generation suddenly got amnesia when they became adults and forgot what it was like when they were kids. It is also why I think the whole "act your age" thing is self-destructive. When I was growing up adults around me always seemed uptight and angry. Now as an adult I understand why it is the societal expectation that you should act a certain way because you get older. An older person "shouldn't" enjoy video games, cartoons, pop music, and etc. They need to be serious and mature! Bullcrap! That "expectation" is making people MISERABLE! You can be responsible and still do what you love to do at the same time. Being mature means balancing responsibilities and things you love doing, not giving up what you love doing to focus entirely on responsibilities. That line of thinking, that "societal norm" is killing us with stress. Well, go tell society what it can do with itself and live your self how you want to live it and not how you are "expected" to live it. Society can take those expectations and shove them where the sun doesn't shine.
    I'm 47, BTW.

      It sucks that we can't find a happy medium. Spending a lot of time outside without adult supervision literally makes kids better at life, more confident, less anxious, etc. I wish all kids could have that but still relate to mainstream culture with memes and RUclips and all that. Most of the kids I know (through my work) hardly even get to go outside because their parents are so overprotective and devices are such cheap babysitters.
      I love young people and new stuff so I'll never be someone who writes furious blog posts about kids these days and Tide pods, but I do wish kids had more freedom and free time. There has been an increase in mental illness and a lot of it is because of how dysfunctional and sedentary/isolated our culture is

    The Led Zeppelin/Justin Bieber meme @10:58 is ripe with irony. In the song "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" the post chorus holds the record for the most times "baby" is said consecutively in a song. I've heard live versions where Robert Plant repeats "baby" consecutively for at least 20 seconds straight.
    I'm glad you pointed that out!

      @@briankerrigan3529 As much as I wish that were true, Zeppelin just got famous by ripping off lesser-known blues artists and the like. If plagiarism was talent, they'd sure be full of it. Hell, they're going to court relatively soon over plagiarizing "Stairway to Heaven" for being a ripoff of "Taurus" by a band called Spirit. And judging by this list ( www.thetoptens.com/led-zeppelin-songs-get-ripped-off/ ), they sure do seem to enjoy plagiarism.

Thinking about it now, it might just be a lot of information from this video that stuck in my mind on the day. So hopefully my unintention plagarism can be written off as pationate imitation.
