Unfortunately not. It's wild that they've buried the memory that if there was one thing Reagan hated as much as the New Deal it was the Soviets. And now we may as well be learning Russian.
Went to FB today to deactivate. I hadn’t been on in years and I was just… idk… cleaning house? So many of my old friends just making me sick. One girl who had several abortions smiling huge under a painting of Trump. Like what the fuck? I’m ashamed and angry and sickened.
I did amp up the petty by telling a lot of people and posting about it here and on threads where people know me IRL. But thank you so much. That makes me feel glad. Followed you right back!
Makes sense, I guess...we're so perversely proud of having been "feral" kids who were "toughened up" (actually, just traumatized) by being neglected. So many of us have contempt for young people for unashamedly expressing needs instead of just sucking it up.
I think we weren’t a monolith. I remember how horrified our rock stars were to see their bullies show up at their concerts. By the millions, each tour. Most of us were damaged, sure, and because of the same shared experiences. But most of us were not good people, as I recall.
Firmly convinced many in Gen X long for return to highflying economy of their 20s.
Last 25 years of disappointment have created a backlash fueled largely by fact that the Ponzi Scheme they thought was going to last forever has not.
We're at lying to wife & scream-crying at broker stage of things.

But then I deactivated. It was petty but felt so good. Lol
But just petty enough for a follow

Also helps to have a coherent narrative.
Plus, Dems hamstrung by fealty to moneyed interests financing their campaigns. Hard to be party of the people & Wall St at same time.
But yeah, kind of boggles the mind. How much evidence do people need?
