      Have you ever voted? Like, gone to the voting booth and voted? How about attended a caucus or primary? Because I regularly do, I’m 45, and I’m typically the youngest person in the building.

      The US voting base is old as fuck.

        I first voted when I was 18. Younger people vote when you give them a candidate that actually speaks to their needs. If we had West and Stein on the national debate stage, I’m sure we’d have more young voters.

          What are the needs that young people have that are not being addressed by the Harris campaign?

            I mean the greatest threat to the future is the climate crisis and nuclear arsenals. Both of those require dismantling the military industrial complex.

            Harris has doubled down on continuing to extract carbon and spending on the military.

            But those are just the existential threats

              I hear you, but please still get out and vote for Harris/Walz this November. This is about keeping the infrastructure of representative democracy in place so we will be able to work towards those needed changes. If Trump wins, all that is going away, and those of us guilty of thought crimes such as believing in global warming will end up in prison at best.
