I can also remember Joe Lieberman the villian and Al Gore the pre-eminent inventor of the internet and hanging chads and all that fun. I also developed a cool skill called appreciation for nuance which let's me see that having a break away group is still better than wholesale support of roving gestapo in major cities. Luckily, that's a thing we now have thanks in part to the "both sides are the same" heroic lefty crowd. I would even consider myself a lefty person except I can get my old ass up of the couch to vote once year and protest even a few more times.

The couch troglodytes of this com who post memes like this are lucky to have nothing to lose. You can rotate villains in a party, but that's still way better than a whole party of villains.

Maybe you can check your old ass perspective.
