Has anyone else noticed this really weird infantilization thing going on among young adults lately? You have people in their 20s acting like they’re still 9 years old and it’s weird for anyone 2-4 years older to even speak to them.
Maybe it’s because I’m about to be 30 myself, but why does it seem like people are being trained to assume that adults older than 30 are predators in wait?
I might not have a spouse or a house or any prospects for a “professional” job in the next 3-5 years or even a car, but I have a lot of friends, mostly from stuff adjacent to anarchist organizing. Maybe I’m just really trusting, maybe the place I live is rather special, or maybe it’s just luck, but ever since the lockdowns I have definitely been counting my blessings.
