They’ve done it again.
The latest nastiness:
“Reblog if you’re in love with someone who’s like 70 years old or dead.”
I am truly not sure why this sort of thing seems “cute” to some people.
Having
lost many people in my life, having watched several of them succumb to
serious illnesses, having watched people that I love grow old and die, watching people lose their abilities, watching their bodies become a burden, watching some of them lose their ability to remember or reason, I feel that this shit is coming from a twisted, soulless place.
I’m not going to generalize about an entire generation, because doing that would be bullshit. However, it seems that there is certainly a faction of the younger generation who completely lack empathy. Maybe they’re just drawn to the hellsite that is Tumblr, I don’t know. But they really make me feel sad and sick.
Not everyone in their 70s is frail, to be sure. But pretty much everyone in their 70s has health problems.
Of course, these cretins don’t care about that.
And what do you wanna bet they’re looking at 40 plus year old pictures anyway.
I really fucking hate this bullshit.
Here’s my favorite song for when I’m feeling like giving someone a one way ticket to the center of the sun.
