There are next to no 70+ year olds on here to be stroking themselves over this. Most of us young people either didn't vote in the primaries or voted for Warren/Bernie. It's the old voters that choose our candidates because not enough young people can be bothered to vote in primaries... :(
Why do you acknowledge the Boomers as the problem but your comment still seems to lay responsibility at the feet of "young people"?
Get out there and make sure Democrat voting boomers know: this is their fault. Stop carrying water for them.
Because the responsibility IS at the feet of us young people. If we could be bothered to actually vote in the primaries it wouldn't matter who the boomers chose.
Unfortunately no one is going to change their minds by me rubbing their nose in the shit they just made. They vote for him because they believe in whatever he stands for. They're too scared of spooky socialism to vote for anyone that isn't a centrist anyway.
Holy victim blaming Batman.
We are the victims of their inaction for sure, but that doesn't change the fact that boomers gonna boomer. We can counter that we just need to get people to see how important primaries are.
I just don't see how we could possibly convince neolib boomers to not be neolib boomers.
No we are the victims of Boomers actions. Holy shit you are trying so hard to give them a free pass.
