Be careful with this assumption. There are a lot of young conservatives out there that have been brainwashed into being just as fervent. I had a 23 year old guy working for me that I was making progress with, but it took a lot of patience on my part. You have to slowly walk them through the cognitive dissonance that they have been force fed their entire life.
He’s moved on to a different company now and I worry that all the progress we made will be lost ☹️.
I hear ya. I know they’re not all old, and I know they are not all weird. I’m just amused that it seems that such a trite + petty label is finally rankling their jimmies because all the other labels that stunningly apply to a lot of the conservatives in office don’t seem to bother them in the least. As if … they already knew about the other ones. The MAGA conservatives waste no time slinging all sorts of generalized labels, thinking that it makes them seem stronger, but in reality, it’s just … weird.
Because they’re old, and weird.

I wouldn’t want anyone that old and weird to lead our country.
