evacideI don't understand the people who told me I would get more conservative with age. The more powerful I become, the more angry I get at the people who abuse their power and the more aware I become of the ways in which systemic oppression functions.
20-year old me totally believed that tech was a meritocracy where people pulled themselves up by their bootstraps and that the 30-something guys I dated were attracted to me because I was so mature.
In other news, I am reading "Capital in the 21st Century" by Thomas Picketty and I am so angry at baby boomers right now.
Jeri Dansky@evacide Boomer here who thinks it's totally unfair that I got major financial advantages that later generations did not. Would be happy to do what I can to make that situation better. Not sure what that is beyond voting for better candidates, pestering the ones I have, and donating to good causes.
majinnaibu@jeridansky @evacide Just try to teach other boomers, they generally won't listen to anybody else. I'd say that to anybody of any generation. Teach our cohorts to be better.
