They don't have it much tougher in life comforts, for sure, but it's not because of that they should be grateful and accepting of all the issues and injustices that plague societies.
People have always wanted a better world, and the young have a very different lens than you to judge that, it's absolutely common to become more conservative when you grow older because you lived through how the world was before, that world is gone and the before of the youth's future is right now, they will strive to make it better just like you might have had in your past.
An old man sitting down and pointing fingers at how the youth is corrupted compared to their golden days is a tale as old as time, you're just playing your part of this endless cycle...
Aristotle ~400 BC:
> “[Young people] are high-minded because they have not yet been humbled by life, nor have they experienced the force of circumstances.
> They think they know everything, and are always quite sure about it.”
Horace ~20-50 BC:
> Our sires' age was worse than our grandsires'.
We, their sons, are more worthless than they;
so in our turn we shall give the world a progeny yet more corrupt.
> The beardless youth… does not foresee what is useful, squandering his money.
You'll find many, many many many more examples of the same rhetoric across all human writing.
Old man yells at cloud, let the youth carry the fire of bettering societies, you already got comfortable and scared.
