    The younger generation has a problem with externalizing their issues to others without feeling responsible for these issues themselves.

    There is always some other party with influence and power who should take care of them like a parent and when they don’t, everything is the fault of that “parent”.

    For example, it’s the “DNCs fault” we’re in the state we’re in apparently even though a lot of people didn’t vote and encouraged others not to vote. The democrat party is not some nebulous nefarious entity that exists to cater to your whims. It’s made up of people. People like you who got together with other people to try to enact their views and vision for the country.

    If you don’t like that vision, you need to get with other people who share your vision, start from the ground up, win local elections and start changing the party bit by bit. But this is hard work and much more difficult than screaming that the octogenarian politicians are ruining your life when nobody your age is actually doing anything to replace them because no younger people want to become career politicians.

      The younger generation has a problem with making or receiving phone calls. I wouldn’t look to them to organize a D&D game.

      Except when Democrats look at things their people want like universal healthcare or people they support like Bernie and just refuse to do them.

      My friend, you deserve (I don’t know) some money or maybe a cupcake with like really nice frosting for this comment.
