What we do have, in the U.K. at least, are now a lot of 50-80 yr olds who remember venerating their elders for their wartime service, but are not now being venerated themselves, and they have extremely strong feelings about this
As a teen or young adult in the 1990s you had constant encounters with people in their 50s-80s who were combatants, victims or perpetrators during catastrophes of the mid-20th century
That direct link to realities of Nazism and other forms of oppression such as Stalinism or colonialism is now gone

Fun learning experience though! I do promise to keep it once a day as I don't want to spam the hashtag.
