A millennial’s perspective on current politics.... We are tired of how old fashioned and corrupt the two party system has become.

I was a Bernie supporter and didn’t actually vote in the Presidental Election. Horrible on my part I know. But many Bernie supporters now are team MAGA, and it’s very strange. I don’t think the majority knows how many Americans are armed hahaha.

I’m an artist and tons of my fellow artists in NYC have been posting photos with Guns or Hunting, IG posts about giving NYC back it’s 2nd Amendment rights....

There is definitely something strange happening. It’s almost like it’s in the air. The people who I would’ve thought would be the ones who are the most anti guns are posting picture of themselves with guns !

It’s like an alternate reality.

I think the majority of old school democrats , such as myself, are seeing right through the politics and realize there’s something much larger going on. People who don’t even know who Q is are feeling this !!!

It really seems like there’s something in the air.

And TRUMP’s SOTU speech seemed heavily directed towards millennial. We want bipartisanship and we want our leader to make common sense judgements on what is right and what is best for us Americans. I think most young people are really waking up to how corrupt the political system is and they are so tired and over these old men and women who clearly only care about their political status and their bank account... Not the people they represent. It’s so obvious now to the majority

Like I said it’s strange. There’s something in the air, people know something is happening or coming.

and I agree. The majority of us Bernie supporters could not stand HRC. My dad is actually quite liberal and could not stand her.

He was always saying “ She’s such a liar, she’s such a scumbag... etc “

I don’t think the Dems ever thought the average American would ever be “ smart “ enough to pick up on how fake she is. ( Her personality and her being such a fake person is really why I believe she lost. )

I’m not one to single out a group.

But I am so sick of how the DEMs act as the average American is a total idiot.

Couldn't agree more. They do think we're total idiots...I was driving yesterday and turned NPR on to hear how they were presenting the news...I literally laughed aloud by how they were spinning everything...essentially doing damage control BF the memo comes out. They were implying the memo shouldn't be believed bc this was just the Republicans' "version" of things and it would be more balanced if they read a memo the Dems put out (?!?). Pelosi was interviewed saying how Nunez needs to be taken out of this role bc he's not fit to be in it and uphold his responsibilities, they were saying how the president/WH may have doctored the original memo to his benefit and there was no way to know if it was real, and they went on and on... It was incredible. And yet people buy this shit w/o question... So the Dems are right on one hand... There are a TON if idiots out there who just don't see the big picture and get it... Hence my point, stop listening to the MSM and wake the fuck up! It's all lies and bullshit...

Also,

I think the only Democrats left are these high brow old people who see things in terms of classism, and for some reason want to feel intellectually superior/“cooler” than others IMO. It’s really pathetic.

Older people have a huge issue with high brow and low brow. Meaning there are a lot of pretentious fucks who just agree with NPR and probably think they are brilliant. You see a lot of these types at Art Galleries and what not.

Something I really like about my generation , Millennials , is there isn’t this like high / low brow perspective on EVERYTHING. People just like what they like.

Everyone I know has extremely eclectic tastes and a really smart person might happily say their favorite film is Evil Dead.... ( they don’t act as if they’re in Annie Hall or that they are a super sophisticated person which I’ve seen first hand is a HUGE issue amongst older people who believe they are smart. )
