joinlobear: Scandal: youth is young! In parts of Spain the nightlife venues must close and now the authorities are scandalized that the young people then have street and beach parties. They ask for a “hard hand”, fines, all the stupid things that can go through a brain aged and dried-up before time. Although it has never seemed fun to me personally, not even as a young man, to get drunk in a group, it is a great advantage and the strength of youth that they are not afraid, do not see danger, are willing to take risks, that already in principle they go against what the elders say and that in particular they oppose the rules the more strict they are. It is that, after all, that advances the world and humanity. It is a fatal mistake to speak of “social distancing” and trying to impose it when perhaps physical distancing could be necessary. We are social beings, adolescence and youth is the time when you learn to socialize. How you do it is determinative for life. In times of crisis, socializing is even more important and we need social rapprochement rather than distancing, perhaps keeping physical distance where and when possible. It is not possible to repress the healthy need to socialize (and neither to do physical experiences) without using violence and without crippling an entire generation. All the state and administration experts know this (if they do not know it, they must be replaced urgently because their expensive wages are not worth it). If it is the virus, efficient ways should be found to prevent infection among young people. Or maybe destroying a generation is the real hidden goal and the virus is just the excuse? -- source link
