    To be fair, the comic stated the guy was the last person alive born in the 1900s, and grew up in the 90s. Those are two very important details where words matter. In my mind this infers he was born before the 90s and spent his childhood in the 90s. And knowing kids from the 1900s it’s not too far fetched to imagine most died at a young age (I’m very surprised I’m still alive and it’s only 2025). 🤣

    Also, the year stated in the comic is 2118, so the guy is already older than 118 years. If that’s possible, then it’s also possible he was born in the 80s, or late 70s.

  • It’s simple really. White folk, especially old white men, have done so many bad things for so long that there really isn’t much legitimate good things that they can take credit for anymore. Add to that a systemic lack of accountability, and you get a lot of fragile egos that don’t understand that part of life is a) apologizing, and 2) sitting with and thinking about the things that make you uncomfortable. So instead, they prop themselves up by bringing other people down, and removing the legitimate accomplishments of the people that in effect demonstrate how inferior these white old men genuinely are.

    ~i.e. they lack emotional maturity, emotional intelligence, and empathy.~
