(38,109 posts)I've been a registered Democratic since 1991.
Let me clear this up - That's Gen X. . . not a Boomer.
On that note - in my opinion - Boomers were and are the GOAT - The Greatest Generation. I stand on the shoulders of Black Americans and Women who came before me.
Back on topic - If it is going 'down in flames' I question the source (not you poster) of that comment. I've been alive long enough to remember the constant shrill harping of the media that "The Dems are in Disarray".
What I DO think needs to happen - is the purity tests need to stop now.
I don't believe in a Universal income for everyone.
Another person might believe Tariffs will stick it to the man (I'm on the opposite side of that).
Can we both agree that Voting Rights are Critical? If so - we aren't in disarray. We aren't going down in flames.
Right now - me? I'm so sick and tired of the media and everyone else continuing to call the MagaPublicans Republicans. The Republican party is dead.
But the MagaPublicans always come home to their 'daddy'.
Just my two cents. I'm starting to see the IRL activism pick up amongst Genz and Millenials where it SHOULD be. That doesn't look like anything is being burned up in flames to me.
