Agree with the sentiment, but don't buy that 'this' generation is going to lead us from the wilderness. It's tempting and understandable to claim young tech billionaires are altruistic and representative of the best of the 20-something generation, but saying so, doesn't make it so.
I could just as easily claim that 20 something degen, internet poker playing 20 y/o millionaire gamblers represent everything that is wrong with the same generation.
I hope you're right and your generation re-prioritizes things for our society. It needs to happen soon.
