Yeah, fuck those young people for wanting to own homes and retirement accounts! Selfish little chits, doesn't anyone think of the greater good anymore?Speaking only of the ‘independent voters’ I personally know and might be related to, they are mostly far to the left of Biden, think Bernie Sanders was cheated ( but Biden is too old) and are mostly mad that adulting is hard, progress is slow, they were not born into Nirvana and that real life involves difficult choices and compromise. Abd how dare boomers be able to retire/why don’t all the boomers retire so we can have their jobs abd better yet, why don’t all the boomers just climb onto dwindling ice flows do we can get their houses for cheap.I didn't mention the so-called "independent" voters, so you have a point. But today's independent voters seem to me to be as maddeningly obtuse as the Trumpies. Who, in the summer of 2024, doesn't know all they need to know about Donald Trump?I'm not convinced that it won't help. Whether it'll make a significant difference is another thing. But if we only care about making a significant difference then why talk politics at all?
But maybe, some of those mysterious independents...
