@LukeAlmighty We have the midwit Redditor types to blame for the mindset of "my parents and grandparents said 'That's how we have always done things' when I asked them about the traditions and norms that they do. I hate those things, and since my parents gave that answer, the traditions and norms are stupid! So let's get rid of them!"
They think themselves smarter than everyone else, so they just assume they can discard generations of wisdom before them.
