How are you Coping with Covid?

Change is hard and harder for the elderly as the RWNJs are proving, most of whom are over 65. Those from Tweens to early Thirties will have to live with the consequences of present day events. In the Boomer's case, that's Sex, Drugs and Rock'n'Roll plus a little anti-government violence which is directly responsible for Disco. As if that wasn't bad enough, the Disco Era gave way to "the Me Decade". Most of those Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll hippies became 80's coke-snorting salesmen. Trump epitomizes the era. The good news was the era also had a very high percentage of vets thanks to the draft. The draft ended in 1973. 18 years later the Soviet Union collapses. In 1992 draft-dodging Bill "I didn't inhale" Clinton is elected President and all Gen X'er were in or entering their mid-20s.
Blaming Boomers for the present state of the nation is silly and dodges the responsibilities of other age groups. Major block? Yes. Completely at fault? No. FWIW, the Boomer generation ended in 1964.

Thats funny as hell,.....because I actually REALLY was an 80's coke snorting salesman. If you didnt snort it out of a rolled up Benji you were pretty much like a bum...
Drank like a fish, partied like a rockstar 4 nights a week. The 80,s were a frikkin BLAST. Darth Omar

In the sixties the left rebelled against the establishment.
By the turn of the century they overcame the establishment. Twenty years after that they ARE the establishment. They own it, lock stock and barrel.

Fucking kids.......... Buy them books and all they do is eat the pages! As bad as women and dogs. Cant live with em....cant shoot em!
An excellent reason not to have them. I liked being an uncle and love being a grandpa, but it's great to say "Hey, kid. Gotta go home."
Exactly right. Nobody can blame me. All I did was party like a maniac when I was a young guy which is what every true blue red blooded American male is SUPPOSED to do in his youth! Until these frikkin soy boy incel things came along....
The Free Love people turned into morally bankrupt abusers who dont believe in consent.

The point is, if these lefty millennials think they are rebelling against the establishment they are sadly mistaken.
They are very much a part of it.

I am grateful. Keep working for me, Billy.

I like your honesty!! HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was reading a few months back that the people on the streets are useful idiots, that the Revolution is being run by old radical Boomers who are trying to make sure that the revolution that they imagined in the 60's gets done before they die. I have not made up my mind yet if this is correct.

Whether it’s true or not—it certainly has that appearance lol.
Yep,....older I get I just dont see a point in lying about much of anything. Plus I dont much give a shit what people might think anyway!
You are correct. Sadly,...those older radical lefties ONLY interest in those younger people out in the streets is to USE THEM as cannon fodder. Hey,....they were the same ones who ran away from Vietnam and let their peers take the bullets,...WHY would they give a shit at all about people 45-55 years younger than them ?. They dont,....thats how the old commies roll. Useful IDIOTS indeed those youngers are.
The Left does not believe in Consent so they are not interested in Transparency so it is very hard to know. Knowing in the age where almost all of the journalists have quit doing their jobs is hard even on a good day.
I just dont know who is driving this Revolution yet.
No way. the left and free love people faded into the background. It is the rightys who hated the hippies that are in seats of power. There are no hippie types in power. Look at the entire administration.

But who is driving? The one thing I know for sure is that this revolution was birthed by the Victim Culture Cult who run our "elite" universities, they are the ones who have done the indoctrinations and and sent out their product to take over other institutions. However, since The New Chinese Empire could not write it up for themselves better if they tried I tend to suspect that they are the drivers....I mean I know how good the Chinese are....I have been watching China closely since the late 70's, I am trained in Zen and am a follower of the Tao. On the other hand I was close to the radical Left in the mid 80's when the plan to hijack k-12 education in order to train the young right was already well established, I dont remember people talking about China.
Re the useful idiots....Sheep get slaughtered always.

Most of the good journalism is done by free agents. If it weren’t for free lancers much of the violence in the streets over the summer would have gone unreported.
Even well intentioned journalists work for a paycheck and are under the thumb of editors. The news readers on cable news have to stay in line and etc.
It’s an institutional problem and the institutions are mostly run by _____.
For instance if you want to understand the BLM/ANTIFA Paramilitary Andy NGO should be one of your first stops.
Bret and Heather too.
That is why you are misinformed about both.

Yup, Andy is a good example.
He doesn’t work for a news organization that ‘has an angle’—he just films what’s in front of him.
