People lose their mind as they get older. But blaming them gets us nowhere.

Boomers also elected Clinton, Obama and Biden.

Yeah, I am more progressive than the average boomer.

But there are also alt-right millenials and Gen Z.

Age based politics is dumb and will never succeed. It really only appeals to a small minority of people.

I'm not going to throw my parents under the bus and neither are most people.
