    I was specifically excluding the people I know who were too young to remember it from my statement as they can’t have forgotten something they didn’t experience to remember in the first place.

    But even including the group you are talking about I still don’t know anybody who wants to be at war in the Middle East.

    I’m not saying they don’t exist, but it does make me feel like we are being ruled by a tiny minority especially when you keep seeing polls that say that 70+% want universal healthcare and we still have representatives on the “left” who won’t support it just as one example.

      Your reply was responding to a comment that said many adults have no memory of it because it was 25 years ago, they were referring to those not born yet or too young to remember
