When you’ve lived more years you’ll understand
Interesting. Since I feel like it's the 19 year olds who still believe voting against democrats will fix everything, whereas those who are older than that have seen the reality that this plan would never work.
There are two sides of the spectrum. Old people who believe in political parties and young people who want to blow it all up. Always been that way. Old people die. Young people get old shifting their ideologies with them, and the cycle continues.
There was not some single event or entity that caused people to not want to vote in the last election. It was a hive mind. Nobody controls that. It was meant to be.
You deciding to vote for so and so is also part of a hive mind. You are not making that decision yourself. You were always going to do what you did.
And that's why you will solve nothing.
You’re right, and it’s because I voted for Harris. Good thing other people were smart enough not to.
People like you solve nothing.
It’s gonna get better. Life is cyclical. You can’t expect everything in your life to be rainbows and sunshine. Times will be hard and out of your control. You have to be prepared to deal with that.
