I think they're well informed and appreciate beauty. What do you think?

Hope nobody minds the generalizing BTW!

Friendly jokes be welcome. Consider adding /s as some people have difficulty with sarcasm.

I think the younger generations are finally shrugging off the apathy that plagued GenX and Millennials.

They're engaged, interested in broad ranges of subjects, are more aware of other cultures.

I also see a greater sense of kindness and community.

Being born into a shit world that has only gotten more shit, instead of just making sarcastic jokes about it they protest and organize, plan and research.

I like this and wish it wasn't so long coming.

Great job younger gens! Sorry you got the worst of this but I am more than willing to help put it all right once the boomers die off.
