Boomers are the destruction of our country. Their self-centeredness and greed knows no bounds.
Sure, but let’s not forget the OG settlers were even more self-centered and greedy, as they invaded and murdered people (and also enslaved them, but that might be the following generations) for their own material comfort. So it’s more of a continuation of things and less of a surprising, isolated incident present only in that age group.
100% and with money just falling out their asses. There’s a boomer next door to me who is 78 and building a fucking house.
Except there’s plenty of millennial/gen Z corrupt politicians and elites. All roads lead to class conflict I’m afraid.
Social Dems seem to be gaining popularity quickly in the US. Are they splitting from Old Dems, or?
MAGA is also welcome to split from Republicans, too, I’d say (and jump into an active volcano, if they would be so kind).
Are they splitting from Old Dems, or?
As long as we have first-past-the-post voting, they have to work within the Dem party, rather than outside it. Trying to fully split into a 3rd party would split the non-fascist vote and make them both lose.
And I’ll reiterate the issue so many gloss over here: The two party system could still theoretically work. But it doesn’t work right now because more than one human being votes for the Republicans, a hateful entity that destroys everything and helps no one but the rich.
That is a choice, one I’ve never tolerated or understood. Even if America had more options, it wouldn’t cure voters that reject progressive candidates because they’re not hateful enough.
Yeah, unless we restructure our democracy to support multiple parties, the closest we can get is two parties that contain several distinct caucuses.
Every “Never Trumper” dropped the Never from their title.
The America First movement is the post-Trump grassroots conservative faction. The party is fighting with them and trying to redirect them to its own aims, but these people know they’ve been lied to before, so it might remain under its own control.
My assessment is that it’s a bit less of a threat to my queer friends than MAGA, and far less destructive on most other fronts, but it isn’t my biggest focus.so I could be missing something.
