Both Gen Z and Millenials underperformed share of the voting age population. Millions of both actively chose to just not show up the one time it mattered.
Your right that it ain't your fault when other people vote for someone else, but the Bernie crusaders have NEVER owned up to that being 99% of what happened both times around, other people voted for someone else, and that number of other people was well surmountable by turning out at voting age share at a minimum, let alone how much more young voters could take in over representation if they could be fucking bothered to do anything but get mad at other people for not voting the way the non voters wanted them to.
The fix was in but easily surmountable by just fucking turning out.
DNC meddling is a fucking boogeyman, only 30 million people voted in the primaries, y'all fucking flaked and won't deserve a leader like him again until you all fucking own that y'all abdicated.
The best excuse y'all could possibly have is that the DNC meddling boogeyman actually spooked you out of participating. Then at least you're just a moron instead of being pathetic too.
You mean like the delegate system that actually benefited him disproportionate to the share of the vote he got?
Or how apparently not letting a candidate pull the nomination with a minority of support is some grand conspiracy of moderate candidates by collectively having more support than him?
Or any number of other reason why the fact that you spent primary day flicking your boogers at the ceiling to see if any of them would stick has nothing to do with Bernie not having as much primary support as his campaign events would suggest?
I love how you just came right the fuck out and admitted you expect everyone else to do the revolution for you but tried to phrase it like never turning out is some kind of virtue.
Accelerationism is a position that is literally only possible to hold from a position of privilege.
I'm sure crashing through the decline into fascism looks like a great idea when you know you're high enough on the kill list to avoid the actual consequences of fascism happening.
The white left never saw us as allies, only as fodder.
I've always held that Bernie deserved better than his supporters.
The one time he actually needed all that energy and noise and the shitbags turned out with all the enthusiasm of a deadbeat dad being asked to come to parent teacher night.
Millenials and Zoomers turning out at population share at the primary would have made it a landslide for him. They couldn't even do that much, nevermind the easy dominating overrepresented share they could take with all the boomers catching the MAGA brainrot.
Funniest version of this I've heard of is having to pass the citizenship test every time you want to run
It depends, if the soldier should obviously have known better courts are a lot less sympathetic to "but I was ordered to!"
Being ordered to assassinate a political enemy of the president is definitely one of those "you should know better!" examples.

The meme is basically making fun of the fact that Christianity, as an evangelizing religion, necessarily is not core piece of any culture it interacts with, but a colonial replacement for already existent local traditions.
Europe was majority pagan until several centuries after Christ had come and gone, and that demographic balance was mostly tipped by wiping the alternatives out.
Right now that would restrict eligibility to be president down to between the ages of 35 and 41
I'm no fan of gerontocracy but I'm pretty sure almost nobody who's served as president would have been eligible under those restrictions.
Depending on the jurisdiction the assassinations are prosecuted under, and I can very well see the Judiciary hard intervening to keep that shit well out of reach of a pardon.
The precedent of sanctioned assassinations of judges might come across to them specifically as a rather especially bad one to set.
Today on "treating online social interactions the same way you'd treat in person interactions is censoring conservatives!"
Nothing narcissists hate more than when you realize you don't actually have to keep dealing with them and their shit.
I'd say it'd depend on the specifics of the result.
Taking the wind out of MAGA's sails would take a blowout victory and Hillary wasn't gonna get that without doing some serious full court pressing for the entire general campaign, like well beyond even the "she should have campaigned more in the rust belt!" ideas people have about where she fell short.
I mean tbf to that last bit "render unto caesar" can certainly be read that way, guy was a radical from a recently conquered territory, I don't think very many Judeans of his day would have had the best impressions of where their new taxes were being spent.
Too bad they couldn't get their act together and actually pitch a clear alternative.
PoV, You're the governor of Arkansas getting a message from the president on September 24th, 1957.
Felt like we could all use some throwback humor.
The Joker is Probably Completely Sane and Just Uses his Public Image of Being Insane to Keep Others Underestimating Him as Just Some Lunatic
The man regularly outwits far more supposedly cognizant opponents including Batman and Lex Luthor, who are canonically recognized as two of thr smartest people on the entire planet.
Edit: I'm not saying insane people are stupid, I'm saying that Joker's mental illnesses are pretty obviously behavioral, they don't affect his perception of reality. He's perfectly capable of understanding what he's doing and how it's wrong, in fact his character almost doesn't work if he doesn't, he just thinks that it's all hilarious anyways. That's why I said he's not insane, he just pretends to be, because he'd be fit to stand criminal trial as fully competent and cognizant of his actions.
