    First, intergenerational warfare is nothing new.

    That was kind of my point. It’s rather tired, and it’s just used to set one portion of the 99% against one another. We shouldn’t get distracted by such nonsense.

    Reading something in long-form journalism is not something that is bad or tied to the elderly. If people just want hot takes and dank memes, that’s fine, but it’s no substitute for anything, and it also doesn’t mean we should be advocating for erasing an entirely legitimate form of information. It’s okay if it’s not for some people because they lack what should be a normal adult attention span when it comes to reading comprehension.
