Show me any generation now with agency in prez choices, and I will show you sheep that do not understand we have allowed the aristocracy to game both sides, sucking enough to allow a traitor to end what remains of representational government, aka, ending the republic in all but name.

    I don't know man, my first presidential election is far in the past but as far as i remember my generation wasn't manipulated by social media to trigger WWIII as our first political act. I don't know if you realize the kind of blitz psy-ops shit that has been going on. Most adults are susceptible to that, and i have no problem blaming them, but how can you expect teenagers to not get caught in the net ? They've been priced out of IRL, and all of their online spaces, each and every fucking one of them, has been colonized at least since COVID. Of course they were easy to tip, and of course a lot of them are going to regret it now. Shit is going to get very dark when they come to actions.

    Most of us have made our first political mistakes by voting for some kooky marginal candidate, not by bringing the God-King to power. We should consider ourselves lucky.
