Fuck me for actually internalizing the morals I was raised with, right?
Maybe early onset dementia. One of the symptoms is loss of empathy. The lead, DDT and other pesticides they were exposed to in their youth are now taking effect. In the next few decades we are going to see a pandemic of boomers suffering from dementia.

100% agree. Only hope is they start dying off before they cause any more damage, but we all know we aren’t that lucky.
You’re not alone
