Comment on BYO sandwiches and no cafe lunches as retirements threatened by rising costs

I’m not going to cast judgement on specific individuals but it’s difficult to feel empathetic or even sympathetic towards that generation considering all that has happened. Okay, so they’re going to have a more difficult retirement because of the consequences of climate change, which they dragged their feet on addressing for decades…my generation will not only have to live with more severe consequences for longer but we have also repeatedly been told that we’ll have to work longer than these people ever did and maybe not experience a retirement at all. Again, predominately because of their generation’s short-sighted selfishness over the last few decades. Who is the real victim here?
