I think of my family as overall very good humans. I’d find a way longer list of flaws in myself.
However, as I grow older and maybe given the fact that I spend almost all day studying things, I am becoming rather intolerant to what seems to me very narrow minded views of many important topics:
- which sources of information they consult
- how they extrapolate from single events to all humans
- how easily they discriminate others, different from them
- how lazy they are to read anything longer than a tweet, etc.
I understand also that:
- parents they grow older and so on,
- plus the fact that they didn’t have either internet,
- or maybe travel so much,
and may hold opinions that are almost racist, or very exclusive, or have hatred for some minorities and so on.
I wonder if others have this kind doubt / problem / struggle as well, and how do you deal with it, other than just ignoring it.
