A few obsevations:

There are only 60 "likes" for the page, so we are only looking at a small number of bitter morons.

Very few of the posts are recent.

What strikes me the most is that the posters rely on ugly generalizations about old folks. It is very similar to prejudice, bigotry and the like. People who post those types of things are the same as those who claim "All blacks are..." or "All Jews are..." or even "All liberals are..." Stereotyping is the weapon of the ignorant.

Don't waste your time trying to engage these folks in a battle of wits, because your oppnents are unarmed. Ignore them...most of their posts are made when Villagers actually respond to their nonsense.
