Ah, so a bunch of geriatrics vote Republican, believe the best times are ahead, and also believe the country is more divided than ever. Contrasted by, the younger voters believe the American dream is dead, and we need radical change.
Also if we’re anonymous, we hate everyone just a little bit more.
We’ve lost the moral center in this country that we pretended to believe. Now we’re steeped in pessimism & sardonic irony. Everything is more expensive to boot.
The older generations in this country have barely any connection to reality. We’re bleeding social services, creating massive debt, & the planet is clearly worse each year. It’s hard to be positive about anything in America right now, unless you love fascist secret police and drink the authoritative, agitprop koolaid.
Ah, so a bunch of geriatrics vote Republican, believe the best times are ahead, and also believe the country is more divided than ever.
It’s not quite like that. Those geriatrics remember when they were children in the 60s and 70s through rose-tinted glasses. People were respectful to their elders, Technology was simple and could be understood by the layman, and the economy was great and only getting better.
Then they hear some politician who is their age that wants to bring all that back, starting by sticking it to the freaks and weirdos that made the country so strange in the 90s and 2000s.
They simply don’t understand why things were so good in mid century America, and took the wrong lessons from history.
In short, they want to be the class of old people that the young were forced to respect out of fear of violence, they want technology to regress to a point where you don’t need a CS degree to effectively use it, and they want their money to be worth more than it is.
