CE being constantly pessimistic and assuming worst case scenario intentions and implications never gets old.

I'm willing to believe that Arnold has honest-hearted intentions with what he said. That doesn't mean what he said was the thing to say. In the end it's just meaningless. It's always said with a tone as if there is a risk of a new reality unfolding where young people won't know emotional or physical challenge, and it's obviously untrue. It's never been true, and it'll never be true. Old people popping off with these masturbatory "pearls of wisdom" are just engaging in wholly impotent talk that's really only aimed at their peers, not youth. They're not speaking to the young people they're talking about.
