I always thought it was because most young people tend to be more liberal nowadays.

Some young people are just as bad. During the election one of my former friends kept posting about how people voting for Obama had no morals because that meant they supported same sex marriage. I asked him to give me a reason that gay marriage is wrong, and he said that "It's an abomination to God."
He's 21 and has a kid out of wedlock with his 16 year old girlfriend.
There's a reason he's a former friend.

And if you look closely, you'll also notice that the segregation picture is also black and white

3. the youth of america were coerced by their parents to participate in protests.
now the youth of america is full of brats

Or maybe the young people's generation in the old photo are now the old people in the new photo and they still haven't learned to shut the fuck up.

What about that occupy wall street thing.
Wasn't that just young people complaining about something they don't understand.
