Allie pointed out to me that, for me at least (and likely for you) that it's an artifact of living in the deep south, of the generation I was born into, that dead center of the baby boomers.
And the truth of it is that I get the why part of it being hurtful and not exactly the best response because it does dismiss the history of everything before.
It just leaves me without a plan, without a response, without something to *act* upon and so I'm kind of flopping around like a dead fish with no idea how to act or even to be.
