This is not a generational issue, the problem is not age. The problem is conservatism.

Your criticism of the comic is a case of Whataboutism.

It's like if the comic was making fun of a dog liking food and you then chimed in with "hey, humans like food too...why didn't they include humans in their example?"

Look at the comedy in the comic. Have those things been witnessed by others and turned into an exaggerated stereotype? Yes, they have. Stating that other things are also true does not negate the humor of the comic.
