There is something soul destroying that comes with the demographic. Long, ill informed, right- wing speeches. Politics is supposed to be a taboo subject, of course.
I was listening to a repeater in the UK one day and heard this,
"I don't follow the news, I don't follow politics, I don't know the first thing about it. But in my opinion... blah blah Brexit blah"
Or another on air every night without fail on 2m FM in the SSB segment...
" These modern planes are all auto-pilots, the pilot is just sat there. No skill at all."
That's the reality that greets us after we get our licence. You would also be hard pressed to join in with them either, they are just chatting to their mate up the road. I tried to get my boys interested, but they heard this stuff and now make their own jokes about ham operators.
