I’m inclined to agree. I lost my grandfathers years ago, but I’ve gone through this thought exercise a lot since this all kicked off:
Assuming they don’t already know: would I shelter a 90+ year old veteran from home-grown horrors that they’ll never live to see resolved, or let them shuffle off this mortal coil blissfully ignorant?
Honestly, this is a situation where the truth simply won’t do any good. I’d probably just not tell them and keep those soaps and old movies on repeat.
They’re all 90+. Do you think someone that old is doing anything besides watching soap operas?

I’m not sure I could tell one if I knew one either.
Watching Fox News?
Some are nosy neighbors. No age limit on that shit
