Old tough guys vs actual weak ones


I saw nobody talking about the comparison made on this movie.

In Drac's time boys were forced to become strong, as he was thrown by that tall dangerous place or having his favorite thing destroyed. And Vlad said he was also weak.

It shows that now kids are taught to share and be friends, and avoided from any harm which make them coward.

I felt interesting how both presented sides have their advantages and disadvantages. In old ways, boys are taught how to be strong. But those unable to tough themselves will become traumatized and even get killed (happens IRL). Today, harassment is not accepted and kids are (should be) taught to share, be friends with everybody and accept each person individuality. But that creates average weaker people.

Well I think it's evolution. We don't need to hunt for our own food and physically fight for survival anymore.

Its true, the average person is becoming a blob hogging on junk food and sitting on the couch all day, the world has been defanged around him, if someday the structured society breaks down (which sooner or later it will) these civilised guys will be the first to die
