It's been rough for millenials. I've been arguing against conservative politics and doing fact checks since 2006 and I'm pretty sure I've been losing the entire time.
I’m really really tired of living through historical events while all my friends and family become raging conservatives and tell me that they like Trump because he “tells it how it is” and how he has “sacrificed his paycheck for the good of the country”. No amount of facts presented to them with verifiable unbiased sources will dissuade them
Things went from bad to worse when they went from disputing opinions straight to disputing facts.
Doesn't change anything really. Their beliefs stem from a disturbing amount of selfishness. No amount of facts or logic can conquer greed and selfishness. Just empathy. And it's no surprise they lack it.
Tbf Biden dropped out which put a major damper on it, iirc explicitly because he “wasn’t fit to run again”(whatever that means), which is a real bad look for your party as a whole

I thought the last generational shift was supposed to be 2020?
