Yes, I can absolutely see the greatest generation objecting to the stay at home order. Masks they would do, staying home would never happen. Those people had a serious work ethic. My own father worked construction, he fell of a roof one day and broke an arm and a leg. He was on the job at 8 AM the next morning. Those people were hard as nails, self sufficient, and durable.
you're ignoring that they grew up during the Depression. They understood sacrifice and they understood the common good.
why is it that so many ignore what these people actually were, and what they understood? You impart on them attitudes and common responses based on the lives that you have absolutely know idea that they lived.
They understood the common need; not base selfishness for individual gain. This is what the boomers believe is their right, much to the disgust of their dead parents. and that's just how it is.
Are you actually not aware that they lived through rationing, over 2 decades, and understood what sacrifice for everyone meant? Did you just "forget" the point?
