"A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it."

I'm 57. I get it. What about the fuckers in their 20's and 30's who scoff at me?? I'm on an Island in my real little world...looking across an ocean or at a commercial at all the others orange pilled

The young are more pliable. Many more of them will learn. The old are less pliable. Many more of them will die without learning. You’re simply in the minority, aligned less with the elderly than the youth.

Thank you for that. It resonates and makes me feel better!
