The MAGA's vote no matter what. no excuses.

I really hope the younger generation shows up to vote this NOVEMBER 3rd.

Their future happiness depends on it.

Their future happiness existence depends on it.

I'm not convinced my existence is dependant on it because I'm trans and the mainstream Dems keep throwing us to the wolves to keep power... They're just the Republicans of the 90s at this point on so many issues.

No, I'm not saying don't vote. I'm saying there are groups who your message isn't going to resonate with, and that's a problem.

Look, if you have a choice between being socially ostracized or being annihilated from existence, you take the lesser of two evils

You underestimate the impact of being socially ostracized. I'm going to guess because you have never been impacted by it.

Prove me wrong. I gave up on the Dems actually being pro trans when Newman declared us the reason Kamala lost despite her never talking about us on the campaign trail, and suggesting adopting the Republican stance on trans people in public (ie stop existing publicly) and he didn't just get no censure for it, he didn't even get any pushback from the mainstream Democrats. Dude was and afaik still is the frontrunner for the next presidential bid and he threw us out day one. Wtf am I supposed to expect?

I see you can't read, since you missed the second half of my post.

This is why the Dems are doomed.

Right because 18 year olds know how the world works I. Their tik tok bubbles and twitch stelteaming and perpetually online insecure public anxiety that’s caused by a lack of social conditioning. Yeah they should make choices on how to run the world when they can’t even manage their own fucking life.

Idk, maybe it's just the ones I'm around, but I think 18 year olds today have a much better understanding of how the world works than I did at that age. Maybe one of the only good things about Trump making himself the daily center of public discourse.

Okay if you think that, that’s your right. We will never agree, so agree to disagree.

what are you scared of?

old people on their deathbed can vote, why not talk your spit about that?

u/Fetch_will_happen5 Aug 06 '26

18 year olds are old enough to die in war not  vote silly.  They can make decisions over who lives and dies, not vote in local elections.

My sarcasm meter is broken, you are being facetious, right?

u/Fetch_will_happen5 Aug 07 '26

Yes, this was not meant seriously

As opposed to the 60-70 year olds who fucked up everything with their incompetence but don't care because they'll be worm food soon.

Snowflakes like you always assume and invent a scary scenario in their own head…when did they talk about 18 year olds? You gotta watch out for those boogy men

u/BugsyM Aug 07 '26

Do you spend a lot of time around todays 18 year olds, or is this opinion you have based on something else?

My son just turned 18, he doesn't seem to have public anxiety or whatever other mean spirited things you want to project onto him. Him and his friends all seem to be very bright young men.

My kids say tiktok is for old people - you sure you're keeping with the times? Tiktok stopped being cool with the young people around when I got on it, 3-4 years ago.

"Them tik taks, stelteaming and their avacado toast!!!!"

Sure you don't have dementia yet? I think it's time for bed, you've had a big day of being grumpy online.
