young alchoholic
Someone doesn't think/foresee that they will ever do the things the assholes of an older generation (especially their asshole father) did, because they are so much more compassionate and hip in their 20s than the people before them.
This young alchoholic is going to change the guard and the world into what exactly? Something better than it is now, something improved? People have been trying to do that for millenia, and look how fucked up the world and the people in it still are. I think he needs a little tough love, he already gets enough compassion from people.
