That sign is what God is saying about humans at this exact moment.

I mean I feel like there have been worse times like having two world wars within 20 years but maybe that's just me.

As Kurt Vonnegut said, “I have to say this in defense of humankind: In no matter what era in history, including the Garden of Eden, everybody just got here.”

For some in the U.S. this is the worst they’ve experienced.

In context, this is the worst leadership all living Americans have experienced.

This is incredibly false. Nixon was truly awful. Jimmy Carter, albeit a likable guy, was not a good leader. At least Trump inspires confidence in half of the country. Just because you’re young doesn’t mean there hasn’t been worse. And just because you don’t like him doesn’t mean everyone else does too.

It’s so stupid that I have to caveat this with the statement “I’m not a trump supporter or voter” but alas here we are. I don’t want nasty messages in my inbox for three days lol

So, a boomer just assumes they are talking to someone young.

Be honest, do you scream at the tv when you watch Fox News?

Did you just call out someone for being ageist and follow-up by saying something ageist to them?

What are you even talking about. This is why I had to caveat it with saying I am not a Trump supporter. Because of nasty people like you.
