Trying to turn it into some kind of magic generation war is beyond stupidity. Neither the gop, or the far right are just going to disappear in ten years when the numbers of the post ww2 generation are dwindling towards zero.

This is what happens when echo chambers exist. Go to a fucking Republican rally, watch the ones that are organizing, active and truly engaged. It isn't the older generations, they just contribute volume, not direction and energy.
You know, you’re right. I kinda forget about the younger ones and you’re also right they’re really hate filled too. It’ll never end I guess, but I like to cling onto the hope it’s just old people
Completely off topic, but you reminded me of a joke:
While Thor is away, Loki has an orgy in Asgard. The next morning, Thor returns. As he enters, one of the women sits up and looks at him. In a thundering voice he says, "I AM THOR!"
She replies, "You're Thore? I'm tho Thore I can hardly pith!"
Nice ;)
Fun fact, my local voting station is in the lobby of a retirement home.
So I have to get out of bed, get dressed, get into a vehicle of some sort, and drive to vote, while Gertrude, who can't even remember what year it is, can just drive her rascal scooter to the elevator and be voting in the lobby in 30 seconds.
