I look around, and everywhere I can see people who have no faith in the human race. Indeed, our race has its flaws. I hate politics, and murderers, and rapists, and everything bad in between, but I do not hate humanity. I look through the bad so that I can focus on the good face of humanity that innovates, creates, explores, and improves. Our generation is so apparently screwed but how can it not be if people expect it to fail? This generation is different, like every other, which is in my eyes a very promising sign of success. I believe people see this generation as a failure because it has yet to mature. Albeit the generation will have its burnouts, there is no doubt, but there will be those that will bring great things for humanity.

I also believe that our generation in particular has been scrutinized more so than others because it is the first generation of the information revolution, that has grown up with the Internet and instant access to utterly any piece of information. The media has a tendency to dominantly publicize stories of humanity's flaws, such as shootings or scandals, which we see quite commonly. Therefore, people take that information and use it to justify why humanity is at its downfall. I respectfully disagree because I see it as the public finally being informed about how humanity truly is, and how it always has been. I think if people realize and accept the true, destructive nature of humans society would be a better place.

Furthermore, the only failures of our generation you ever hear about are of swaggots and delinquents. There are successes too, even this early on:

Have faith in our generation; whether or not this generation is the best, its the generation that will carry on humanity and it needs some damn encouragement.
