Ugh, I just knew what this gross comments section was gonna look like.

Look, whatever perceived collective guilt an entire cohort of humanity has in your view, it's really disgusting to celebrate and gloat over a report about the elderly becoming homeless.

When subsequent generations decide they have the right to dance on our graves for whatever it is they decide we did, I hope your ghosts aren't too whiny about it.

If we made life significantly worse for our next generations, then they sure as hell should dance on our graves.

Even those that tried their best to avoid causing problems and/or /revert the effects? You’re blaming the entirety for the crimes of the minority. This is dumb.

Yes lol, because they will feel the same way. If they take it as a personal attack, then that's just silly.
