My generation had ‘a longer chance’ to do something about it, therefore we are responsible? I don’t think so. I understand your frustration, believe me I do, but your argument to me seems akin to a child saying, ‘I didn’t ask to be born’. Guess what, neither did I!

No, I was responding to your ‘against our will’ comment. For THAT, yes, your generation is responsible...In as much as mine will be, or the next, if the wrong is not corrected.

Lastly, IMO, your analogy is way off. There’s a difference between ‘I didn’t ask to be born’ vs. ‘You have no authority to enslave me since birth’. The latter has righteous, and correctly so, indignation.
