I don't have an excuse- I majored in economics. Having said that, I have a lot of respect for people who choose to pursue something they are passionate about. I hate how boomers have raised a generation that places absolutely no value on culture and art because these areas do not lead to lucrative careers (most of the time). It's a utilitarian, shamelessly capitalist worldview that reveals a complete lack of ability to think critically. We need to actively combat this imo. I start grilling people irl who condescend to the humanities or seem to hold culture in contempt because I am so fed up with this stupid mentality at this point.

I know this is a bait thread and it's superfluous to make this point here of all places but I needed to vent.

What did he mean by this?
