  • Over 18, but he was the only one that doesn’t want to be there. He was scared but didn’t want to disappoint his father. That poor kid and his mother. Can’t imagine how she must feel. This is why being a good parent takes more than resources. I would never want a relationship with my kids where they felt pressured into doing something just to make me happy. I’d hope I’d make different decisions as a father if I was in that situation. My son openly tells me about his hesitant feelings towards an objectively dangerous trip, I’m not making him go at the very least. And I’m probably not going myself because me and my son can do something else together.



  • I’ll agree that we both are fare from the kind of individuals that would let millions die simply because a political land needed to be navigated.

    My position is simply pretending as if those in power are doing everything in their ability to emancipate humanity, is the problem. The very same people who created this mess or sat bye while undue pain was caused are your heros? If you’re old with good and beneficial ideas? Definitely, get in politics! If you’ve been in politics for 40 years and haven’t been anti apartheid/genicide/colonization the whole time, then goodbye.



  • Lol when a toddler says 2+2=4 I say good job that is correct. But when a middle age man (I’m guessing) jumps on a comment thread and keeps trying to tell me 2+2=5, I call them out more strongly. I would 100% trust a 15 year old over current leadership. At least the 15 year old can hide behind not knowing and can be moved by the plees of the disenfranchised. António Guterres is old enough and powerful enough to lift millions of people up but he doesn’t… Why not? It’s because he’s been brought up in a system that directly benefiting him over others. And yes I 100% would vote younger individuals to be the head. Doesn’t mean they can’t still be advised by people that know the ends and out of the old ways.


  • No I didnt. Experienced and morally wrong just means they know but don’t care. And you want to talk maturity. A mature person wouldn’t play around with others lives so casually. 18 and right about human rights and equality, is no different than 100 and also right. But young and wrong just means that individual needs guidance and wisdom. A 100/80/60/40 year old and wrong. When we know particular things. We know universal Healthcare is the only reasonable way to keep your population healthy but we don’t because the wealthy political officials don’t care. Universal child care. Renewable energy. Income inequality. On and on. The older generations have proven they don’t care.
