Why is it on the kids to fix the shitty situation other generations have created?
It's on the other generations, too. It's not going to end before we're all dead. Passing the torch is barely functional, if a single generation fails to pick up the work set by the previous then our race will die out. Generations are generally better than their predecessors, but only because their predecessors mould them to fit the world they've created, and that work must continue for generations to come. They do not become the way they are on their own.
Hey Google what's the definition of nihilism?
Are you saying you're nihilistic and therefor that you don't care or are you implying that I am nihilistic for worrying about the future? Because both of those sentiments are bad for very different reasons: one is wrong and the other is selfish. Thanks for accidentally arguing on my behalf.
I'm making fun of you if that wasn't clear. No, the next generation are not weak, incapable or any other sort of negative generalization that you might think they are. They are people as diverse any other generation and the whole point of this post is to espouse that generational stereotypes only serve to hurt us and divide us from accomplishing better things for humanity.
I'm glad you were willing to admit you were wrong.
