    Although it’s also true that forcing people into cramped quarters with one another for long periods exacerbates interpersonal issues,

    I dislike this take. Before the Baby Boom, you lived with, moved around with, interacted with…well…everyone. Being familiar with others reduces stress, fear, xenophobia, etc. A lot of the problems we now face are due to people who have no empathy or concern for others and instead live within their own bubble.

      Millions of LGBT youth abused by their birth families would wildly fucking disagree.

      Before the baby boom? You mean segregated USA?? Wtf are you smoking?

        I’m gay, but ok, tell me about my lived experiences or something. And you seem angry for some reason, so I’m gonna go ahead and disengage.
