They simply believe that children today have the identical, fantasized experience they think they remember. Not only is what they remember untrue and most likely a collage of half-memories, stories from other people, and propaganda, but they have no incentive to scrutinize their decisions and beliefs because they’ve been in a comfortable insular community for most of their life that rewards them for thinking this way.
