MODERATORS
I'm not that young myself anymore, and i definitely recognize my very strict upbringing you mentioned, but in my view respect needs to be earned. And not once, but over and over again because people change. Seeing most political leaders being very old white men makes me cringe. They often just don't understand the modern world. Just an example; they make decisions about cybersecurity while i'm convinced they don't know the first thing about it. They probably rely heavily on their advisors and just echo what they say would be best.
