[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so sick of boomers defending what is clearly an insanely unbalanced wealth situation in this country.  And the more callous and "shrug, oh well, at least i got mine!" comments they leave on threads like these, [b]the more millennials and Gen Z will feel determined to "right the ship" and pass laws and elect people into power who are going to do something about it. [/b] We are SICK of selfish older people who seem to have no concern for the lives of their offspring or young people.  And people are just going to get madder and madder as it becomes clear that most boomers really dont give an F- they inherited the most successful economy in the history of the world and burnt it all down and ruined it.  Young people are absolutely FED UP and i promise you- you're going to start seeing changes, especially as young people realize that it wasn't some kind of fluke that boomers are unhappy and sympathetic about- no, they really dont care, as long as they get to stay parked in their comfortable $1 million home they paid 40k for.  Sit and watch.[/quote]

Were you all under the age of 18 the past two elections when you voted, what, boomers into the White House??[/quote]

Overwhelmingly young people do not choose to elect boomers. [/quote]

Those MAGAs are from all age groups.  Where are the qualified 40 year olds?  Besides Reagan, boomers voted for age appropriate candidates.   Carter, Bush, Clinton, Obama.   After that there were no standouts for people younger than Obama.

The well known lawmakers of younger generations are George Santos, MGT, Josh Hawthorne (lied about education), Matt Gaetz (possible sex offender for sex with teens).

We can do better and every age voter wants a strong intelligent honest leader who is over 35. Where are they?  Why is Trump winning while he flies from state to state answering to crimes he’s been indicted for.       [/quote]

It's not about just MAGAs- Joe Biden is one step away from the nursing home.  Most young people desperately want younger politicians, hence the popularity of Alexandra Ocasio Cortez on the left or Matt Gaetz and other conservative figures on the right.  Young people overwhelmingly listen to other young people, be it Hasan Piker for leftists or Ben Shapiro for rightists.  And figures like Alex Jones or even Nick Fuentes have a MASSIVE amount of popularity somewhere in a less traditionally right space, as do Antifa figures in less traditionally left spaces.  What almost all sides have in common is a shocking amount of contempt for older political figures and establishment politics.  Gen Z and millennials are more and more angry and speaking to each other in online spaces made up almost entirely of other young people, and increasingly seeking to find ways to (metaphorically) burn it all down, regardless of party affiliation.
