"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

I once griped to my parents and their friends about how the majority of our waking hours revolve around enriching somebody else's private company, about how most of our lifespan is spent forgoing our own ambitions for the sake of shareholders - and the Boomers just went wide-eyed in horror and said I'm too young to be talking like that.
I was 28 at the time.
They didn't deny anything I was saying. They just said I shouldn't think about it for a few decades.
My parents and their friends - their best nearly lifelong friends whom they love like family - are lucky if they can find the time off to see each other once a year.
