    Good and bad can coexist in a worldview. Teach your kids that they should love their neighbors but your neighbors are all white and straight (-presenting), etc. They were terrible in aggregate in a lot of ways, but there was solid agreement that Nazis could go fuck themselves. If boomers wish their kids would listen to them more, maybe they should remember their own parents’ stances on fascism.

        Boomer here, the first moon landing happened before I started high school. The same “greatest generation” that fought the nazis also brought them into the space program. Please get your fucking history straight.
