I’ve heard people say both “young people are more politically conscious than ever” and also “young people are more disengaged/disillusioned from democracy than ever”
Whilst those things can both be true, I think it’s v important now to try and get young people actively engaged with politics.
But also - we should keep trying to get older generations to be kinder, too.
I’ve been told “your generation will make the world right again!” by the generations above mine, since I was in primary school. 20 years later, we’re still waiting for conservatives to die off. If climate change has proven anything, it’s that we should all be doing more than just waiting it out
