    I wonder how different the planet would be if boomers had just been taught, from an early age, that it’s OK to be wrong.

      I remember my mom saying something like “don’t believe what you see on tv and only half of what you read.” Yet here we are.

        Yeah, I remember my parents teaching me a whole lot of shit that Fox News would call “woke” today. I’m just thankful that I grew up when I did, because if it were now I’d probably have died of measles.
