Entered the comments looking to correct the narrative. Looks like that work is already done :)

I like Lemmy

Edit: blame the system, not the people bound by the system.

And who, apart from those who came before us created the system?

The generation before us also had a class divide, and a good deal of them fought against that divide. The average boomer is no more Diane Feinstein than a millennial is Skreli.

I see they allowed it to get wider.

No. You blame the people for not fighting the system. Not for being complacent.

Except They did fight the system and protested and in ways and with fortitude like you’ve never seen or heard of in this day and age.

Burning bras was the light part of it. And there’s many anti establishment tunes people still listen to today that we’re made in the 1960s.

The dark part of it was people allowing themselves to be run over by tanks, setting themselves on fire, purposely deforming their bodies by holding an arm up until it dies for 45 yrs.

They weren’t complacent.

This comment sounds super pompous.

Right? "Entered comments to pass responsibility and blame to someone else.
