    There’s always exceptions.

    That doesn’t change this:

    And in general, if you look at politicians, the few who actually fight for the future are on the younger side (think AOC, Mamdani, etc). Yes, obviously there are exceptions. Bernie Sanders being a huge one.

      Cool, now let’s talk about the overwhelming majority of today’s youth leaning right. If young people are so much smarter why are so many of them falling into that trap?

      Oh shit, it’s almost like making generalizations leads to you spouting bullshit out of context. I can just as easily paint today’s youth as absolute morons.

      But you’re so ready to be like “old people dumb and evil” that you forget this is all about calling Greta " a child". You know, like your grandma might do to your adult self because, from her perspective, you still are.

      Go touch some grass you fucking loser. We’re talking about someone being abused and you’re nitpicking over the definition of “child”. You’ve missed the mark so far you’re not even in the same stadium.

        I’m talking natural leanings vs all the young people currently being exposed to right wing propaganda which is different.

        There’s a common saying “you’ll grow out of liberalism” among older conservatives.
