I do genuinely believe that the majority of death threats and hateful remarks made on the internet come from teens who haven't fully developed their sense of empathy yet

You'd be suprised. A few years back in France, there were trials on hate speech involving death threats, and the 13 people who were brought in court were aged between 18 and 31.

And I remember and article (though was unable to find it again), that spoke about the many groups of 60+ y.o. people that spewed a lot of hate speech and death threats on Facebook.

you should play Gregtech....

I didn't check whether something called "gregtech" exists before buying my domain name, and yes I was recently told that "EU" is also in Gregtech. I'm an avid enjoyer of vanilla Minecraft, but if you insist I can play it.

yea I know, I've seen you around a few times. I saw you like Factorio so I feel like Gregtech might be something for you as well. it's really difficult from what I've heard tho. maybe there's other versions of it that aren't so hard. it's really an amazing coincidence that you got that name with that url, people always meme about Greg and Gregtech on the modded Minecraft memes subreddit.

Define "old people"...to a 12yo someone in their 40s is old, to a 80yo someone in their 40s is not old at all.

Meanwhile in Germany: we must ban (or place heavy restrictions on) everything from the internet that is potentially unsafe for the young ones. (Porn websites need to verify ID as well as games. Doesn't matter that no company outside Germany will do that.)
