A Question, Possibly Pointless

I don't want to start a flame war or anything, but. In light of recent events, both in various online places I go to, and IRL, it seems that the deep rooted ideals of the older generations, often biased or self serving, are forced upon the newer generations, in turn making their lives growing up harder if not miserable. Granted, to say that all of the older generations are like this would be biased as well, and I do know quite a few that are accepting, tolerant, and looking into the true well being of others. I just want to know what is up with this. If the mods feel that this will cause unnecessary drama, or be disruptive, feel free to lock it. Other wise, serious discussion would be nice to help me understand.

Of people in our time. *sigh* I just don't understand why this happens anymore, I usually just dismiss it as life. But now, after a recent event in my personal life (a very good one :D ), I question these things.

Do you mean the way the older generation try to force everything from their generation onto the newer generation? sure the new generation isn't as good (from our POV anyway) but is really worth the trouble to force it on people? if people want to stick with the new generation stuff, I'm not going to question it

Question is very vague, but I am guessing that you are asking why do older people try to guide their inferiors? If that is the case, the answer is in the question.

the new generation has an exceptional tendency to be filth

And so that new generation, when no longer the new one, should force it's "Filth" onto the next generation as the law, the standard?

I do feel that there is a technical generation after me, though the age bracket is a bit blued due to my age (20, so I see it as anyone younger than 14 atm), but despite that fact that I feel rap and certain other things are filth, I don't try to force them to adopt my standards. But I am not others, so I want to know why others, and my elders, do this.
