[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Retirees are way too online these days. [/quote] In the Dark Ages when you needed a .edu to get a Facebook account, I noticed a lot of folks became more scared of the world as they aged. Men who had seen combat and suffered every difficulty would suddenly start paying for every indulgence. The prospect of their ends changed them. Today, older folks who do not have real-world hobbies (e.g., watching grandkids or meaningful part-time work), spiral in online forums that brook no dissent. Those stringent political beliefs make it harder to hold normal conversations. Also, older folks lack the neuroplasticity necessary to adapt their beliefs as information becomes available. To be fair, younger folks have a hard enough time but most older folks are completely incapable. [/quote]
