13. I'm in the same boat.

I guess I put too much hope in this election. I'm tired of just barely surviving as a democracy, i want to live in a fully realized one. But clearly this will not happen in my lifetime.

you're right about the young people. Many of them are just beyond great. But sadly the rightwing media machine is busy turning many others into zombies. it just sucks.
