Reply to comment by willsmithsrightpalm in Young generations tend to judge or pity for old generations but the fact is that the later are apparently happier, less anxious and more content with what they achieved or failed to. by red-ed

The post is barely comprehensible. I'm guessing "later" is supposed to be "latter" so it means what you say, but that's not what's written.

If one letter in one word is what is making this barely comprehensible then why did both of our brains automatically fill it in and perfectly comprehend it?

I legitimately had to read the post multiple times to understand it. The grammar is just plain wrong, there is barely any punctuation, and in this case the difference between "latter" and "later" is pretty significant with both being real possibilities.

Maybe you were able to comprehend it easily right away, but that's not because it was properly written.
