He’ll also be the oldest ever, assuming he makes it his full term.

Spoiler alert: it’s going to be immigrants again.

Yeah, agreed that they’re all too old. Bernie is great, but I’d have expected him to retire by now.

Same here. I don’t know why it’s not an issue for the people that voted for him though, especially because they made such a stink about Biden’s. Oh wait, I forgot…they’re hypocrites.

My point was that age only became a talking point in regard to Biden and that’s the only person in the aforementioned gerontocracy that seems to have been affected by the younger voters being fed up, so we’re essentially saying the same thing.

But why single out “the left?” Grassley won reelection two years ago and he’s 91 and afaik plans to run again in 2028.

I agree with a lot of these points, but the one about the gerontocracy; I don’t understand how people have a problem with biden’s age but are seemingly fine with trump, who will claim the title of oldest president ever in this next term assuming he doesn’t die in office. (Not saying that I’m inferring that this applies to you from your post btw, just an observation about how everyone says Biden is too old, but the argument hasn’t been effectively used against trump for some reason.)

I’ve wondered the same thing. I never minded ads on news articles as long as they were along the side and out of the way of what I was reading. After they started pushing the ads that spring up in the middle of the text I was reading and click-jacked a few times, I switched over to an ad blocker and never looked back. Good journalism needs to be monetized in some way, but I’m not adding another monthly subscription for a single news source and I’m not reading articles from a source that prioritizes the ads over their content the way they have been. I don’t know how we go back from here.

Kennedy learned nothing from those people he killed in Samoa and trump learned nothing from his first term.

If only there was something he could have done to stop it.

Maybe people will start to pay attention when their retirements are stolen from them.

Time to start stocking up on riot supplies.

Yup, that’s my line in the sand for rioting. I’m comfortable, but if they take away something that I’ve paid into my whole life and fuck my retirement over, I won’t stand for it.
