1 year agoEverywhere I go I’m usually the oldest person in the room, and I’ve been hearing that line since long before I’d ever heard of Donald Trump.
Always, the left has to support whatever bland middle-of-the-road candidate the Democrats put forward, candidates who seem idea-free and utterly without passion, because the Republicans have a terrifying candidate. Gotta take boring over terrifying.
And Bernie’s right. I ain’t arguing.
Sure is a bucket of swill we’re always forced to drink from, though.
Perhaps I live in a bubble of pessimism, but — isn’t the looming collapse of civilization well-known, and essentially a certainty?
