Hey now, I’m 41, and I think that detonating billionaires is a fine first step in societal reform. Don’t count out the middle-aged! We’re leftists too!
Comment on it sucks that you can't use social media for a full month once every 2 years

I think it’s less about older=conservative but more about making the younger voting block something politicians have to cater to.
If you don’t vote, they don’t try to take your interests to heart as much as the people who do vote. Why bother catering to people who won’t get you into office? It’s wasted effort.
This is partially why you see people who talk about issues old people care more about, like social security, than things younger people care about, like how the fucking earth is on fire and if we don’t fix it no one will have a planet anymore.

Vibes-Based Voting is how we got Trump in the first place.
If you have shit politics, please STAY THE FUCK HOME. I’ve had too many fucking Redcaps showing up in election booths for the last ten years, thank you very much.

People say I have short politics because I want to abolish work, school, and the human concepts of “hours” and “minutes.” Should I still vote?
I’m also over 40 so between this and OP’s comment it would be pretty convincing.

I don’t know what to think. I let the internet do that for me.

It wouldn’t help anyway. Even if I don’t vote I’ll still be subjected to the psychological abuse of political coverage every year.
Really I want to never hear from any of you ever again.

Please don’t, it will make converting all my measurements very tedious.

My interpretation wasn’t “please don’t vote if you’re over 40”; it was that older people (sorry) statistically don’t need to be convinced to vote nearly as much as younger people. Like “hey, dipshits”, not “ho, ye enlightened under-40s!”.
