No, not at all.
The readiness to come to conclusions that have no basis in fact is a sign of the regimented experience they had as children. Silent went along to get along. They despise change.
Of course these are generalizations. Your mileage might vary.
Older posters here were raised to be patriotic, went to school when facts were being taught...sans bias, sans "feelings", and questioning & hearing all sides of a topic was not just encouraged, but the norm.
Not my experience at all. They embraced change; things changed a ton in their lifetime and they took it in stride. They were responsible for so many of the changes- space program, at the front of technology, the list is really long.
My dad grew up when many small rural communities still relied on horse and buggies, no electricity, no indoor plumbing. He had no part in the space program or technology but cheered it all on and embraced it. He was a ranch kid from the sticks and had no problems dealing with change. My mother and others I knew were the same.
Those I knew were very resilient in nature, they were not afraid to uproot and move cross country for a new life- they are responsible for the wave of population movement in the 50s into Texas, AZ, CA...in their own way pioneers. Moving for jobs, packing up family to start over in a new and far different place. Very much like those that pioneered the west earlier.
Maybe I just saw them different, but they endured and celebrated many changes in their lifetime.
“Of course these are generalizations.”
Yes, there are. There is also stereotyping, which most of us do to some extent, and so far you lead this thread in that category.
Some day you will come to realize that people tend to judge in accordance with their personal experiences. As you gain more experience....more knowledge, more wisdom... you will likely judge people more as well. And you may be surprised how often your judgments will be proven right.
