      Hubris. Democrats lose because characters like RBG and President Biden simply could not fathom that stepping aside was ALWAYS what they should have done.

      These miserable fucking dinosaurs have gambled away the good intentions, hopes, and stability of the entire nation because their internal mantra was that they are our political saviors, while everyone under 50 was full-throated screaming that they needed to step aside.

      Fuck all you geriatric, foot on the gas, oblivious, incompetent fucks. If (big if) we ever regain our Democracy, the first thing on the agenda should be AGE CAPS for all public offices. Elderly fucking hubris has doomed us to more misery.

        Age caps are good.

        A rating voting system would be good too.

        But I don’t think there won’t be younger people with the same kind of hubris.

        Kyrsten Sinema is in her 40s, Bernie Sanders is in his 80s.

        Age is not the factor here.
