    fearing that history and culture — which is passed down orally — could be lost forever

    Or they could just…write it down…on the internet…where many others around the world would also be able to learn about their history and culture.

    Also many of the elders literally echo what western elders have been saying about the young generation for a hundred years lmao

      If you wouldn’t be such a reader and instead memorized things like God intended, you’d know, that this sentiment existed for at least 2000 years:

      The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.
