What is with the left clinging to these old people who have been in power forever? Pelosi, Biden, RBG, Bernie the list goes on.

How the hell did we go from leftists arguing about how much we need new young progressive leadership, and then they go and worship literal fossils? I do not get them, I just can't understand it. They are tired of rich old white men creating the rules, so they go on to shill for rich old white men who will create more rules.

I consider myself a progressive which is why I vote Trump, because leftists are not making any progress. You need to make progress to be a progressive, and Trump is one of the few politicians in office making progress.

They have a big problem: young people who believe their lies are too stupid to succeed, even at politics: AOC, Omar, Tlaib. Thats their best.

And the old people aren't stupid?

The older ones are just more manipulative.

Hear, hear. Nothing "progressive" about their socialism - they regurgitate to us the same falied bs that's been tried the world over to the same murderous results.

FFS, at least Yang brought some new ideas to the table, even if they weren't all that well thought out. He was the only "progressive" I saw in the Dem lineup.

The old still have a veneer of credibility with some old school dems. The young are raging Marxists.

They only care about the convenient, in all aspects of their lives. Effort, discomfort and delayed gratification have no value. They are eternal children in "expert beginner" mode.
