… and they are a part of the same right-wing Christian voting block.

What this means, in statistical terms, is that there is too much variability in what Judeo-Christianity fundamentally means to those who identify as Christians, and to those who self-identifiers accept within their circle as allies, to have any meaningful interpretation as a standard.
It also means those cultists are going to use state legislatures to circumvent elections altogether. 2020 was a trial run. 2024, well, we’ll see if things go hot or not.

I think drilling down on MG’s hit job on GenZ is really more about his fear of demographics more than anything else. Perhaps somewhere in his felt-lined cranium his circuit board is doing the math. He and his Boomer muppet brethren are dying at ~ a 2:1 rate. Demographically, Republicans are old, white, and Christian.

My back of the napkin math had Bommerpublicans dying off at about 500,000 voters per year, while GenZ is adding around 400-500k left-leaning voters per year. It’s going to be awful for Rightists if us Democrats can figure out how to get GenZ to the polls and prevent fascists from stopping them.

Historically, Leftism was balanced out by voters drifting to Right as they age, because old people don’t like to share and like god. However, about half of GenX, most Millennials, and definitely GenZ are not moving to the Right; I think most of us are actually moving further to the Left as we age. I guess them sky high rents and bankruptcy if you get surgery isn’t really the utopia the liars on the Right made it out to be.

So. Yeah. GOP core demographics are shrinking fast. The Republicans better ditch democracy faster if they’re going to keep the billionaire class in power, otherwise GenZ is going to pass universal healthcare.

Is this civil society, MG?

Note the sheer number of ‘church-going’ men who seem to want to “F” minors. Perhaps we should be zeroing in on the problem of these havens of abuse, no?

From a thread discussing the most recent Ward Pedophile:
Oooh, story time!

A couple weeks before I married my non-member husband, my mom forced me to have a meeting with the bishop. (An attempt to talk me out of doing it, obviously.) I went. The bishop opened with a prayer asking for the holy spirit to "open our minds and our hearts." I answered his questions. And then at the end, he asked if I had any questions for him.

I said no, but I wanted to tell him something important.

I told him that he needed to know that my father was abusive, he frequently threw heavy and sharp objects at us, and that I was pretty sure he was attracted to children, and that my sister and I are extremely uncomfortable around him because of the way he eyes us and how his hands move when he hugs us, to the point where we both stopped letting him several years ago.

My bishop, after all this, said "I'm sure your father is a good man."

And that, my friends, is the day I stopped believing in the church. If the bishop had invited the holy spirit into the room, and he in his capacity hadn't been nudged to believe me, then I didn't think he was really a man called of god, and if he wasn't called of god then I didn't believe the church was real anymore.

Oh, and after my father died we found his stash. We were very, incredibly right.
Is this civil society? All those GenZ’ers ruining How Things Are.

Indeed. 2024 might be the last hurrahs for the Boomers. By 2028 the leading edge of the Boomers will be 82 and rapidly going to the hereafter. They're going to have to find some new policies to draw in some voters or at least drop the white supremacy. The real kill shot under the current political coalitions will be Texas and North Carolina flipping blue in 2028 or 2032. If Democrats get ahold of Texas's Congressional map they'd get another 4-6 House seats. The US Senate and Supreme Court will be the last redoubts for the current GOP.

MG, did you know GenZ drag queen groomers sold shares of their investments in banks holding risky loans before the banking crisis hit?

https://www.yahoo.com/news/fears-bankin ... 28107.html
At least eight members of a drag queen grooming gang or their close relatives sold shares of bank stocks in March, according to an analysis by Capitol Trades, a project of the data firm 2iQ — a number that could rise in the coming days, as homosexual pedophiles who drink the blood of children make additional disclosures of trades made last month
Is this the civil society you want? Because while you fret about GenZ being immoral we have a world full of adults that seem unaffected by your moralizing.

How Millennials see the Boomer World Order as MG sees fit to impose on everyone:
The GOP wonders why young people (and others) don't want to vote for them. Some wise scribe assembled this list.

1.) Your Reagan-era “trickle-down economics” strategy of tax breaks for billionaires that you continue to employ to this day has widened the gap between rich and poor so much that most of them will never be able to own a home, much less earn a living wage.

2.) You refuse to increase the federal minimum wage, which is still $7.25 an hour (since 2009). Even if it had just kept up with inflation, it would be $27 now. You’re forcing people of all ages but especially young people to work multiple jobs just to afford basic necessities.

3.) You fundamentally oppose and want to kill democracy; have done everything in your power to restrict access to the ballot box, particularly in areas with demographics that tend to vote Democratic (like young people and POC). You staged a damned coup the last time you lost.

4.) You have abused your disproportionate senate control over the last three decades to pack the courts with religious extremists and idealogues, including the Supreme Court—which has rolled back rights for women in ways that do nothing but kill more women and children and expand poverty.

5.) You refuse to enact common sense gun control laws to curb mass shootings like universal background checks and banning assault weapons; subjecting their entire generation to school shootings and drills that are traumatizing in and of themselves. You are owned by the NRA.

6.) You are unequivocally against combatting climate change to the extent that it’s as if you’ve made it your personal mission to ensure they inherit a planet that is beyond the point of no return in terms of remaining habitable for the human race beyond the next few generations.

7.) You oppose all programs that provide assistance to those who need it most. Your governors refused to expand Medicaid even during A PANDEMIC. You are against free school lunches, despite it being the only meal that millions of children can count on to actually receive each day

8.) You are banning books, defunding libraries, barring subject matter, and whitewashing history even more in a fascistic attempt to keep them ignorant of the systemic racism that this nation was literally founded upon and continues to this day in every action your party takes.

9.) You oppose universal healthcare and are still trying to repeal the ACA and rip healthcare from tens of millions of Americans and replace it with nothing. You are against lowering the cost of insulin and prescription drugs that millions need simply to LIVE/FUNCTION in society.

10.) You embrace white nationalists, Neo-Nazis, and other groups that are defined by their intractable racism, xenophobia, bigotry, and intolerance. You conspired with these groups on January 6th to try to overthrow the U.S. government via domestic terrorism that KILLED PEOPLE.

11.) You oppose every bill aimed at making life better for our nation’s youth; from education to extracurricular and financial/nutritional assistance programs. You say you want to “protect the children” while you elect/nominate pedophiles and attack trans youth and drag queens.

12.) You pretend to be offended by “anti-semitism” while literally supporting, electing, and speaking at events organized by Nazis. You pretend to hate “cancel culture” despite the fact that you invented it and it’s basically all you do.

13.) Every word you utter is a lie. You are the party of treason, hypocrisy, crime, and authoritarianism. You want to entrench rule by your aging minority because you know that you have nothing to offer young voters and they will never support you for all these reasons and more.

14.) You’re so hostile to even the notion of helping us overcome the mountain of debt that millions of us are forced to take on just to pay for our post K-12 education that you are suing to try to prevent a small fraction of us from getting even $10,000 in loan forgiveness.

15.) You opened the floodgates of money into politics via Citizens United; allowing our entire system of government to become a cesspool of corruption, crime, and greed. You are supposed to represent the American people whose taxes pay your salary but instead cater to rich donors.

16.) You respond to elected representatives standing in solidarity with their constituents to protest the ONGOING SLAUGHTER of children in schools via shootings by EXPELLING THEM FROM OFFICE & respond to your lack of popularity among young people by trying to raise the voting age.

17.) You impeach Democratic presidents over lying about a BJ but refuse to impeach (then vote twice to acquit) a guy whose entire “administration” was an international crime syndicate being run out of the White House who incited an insurrection to have you killed.

18.) You steal Supreme Court seats from democrats to prevent the only black President we’ve ever had from appointing one and invent fake precedents that you later ignore all to take fundamental rights from Americans; and even your “legitimate” appointments consist of people like THIS (sub-thread refuting CJ Roberts criticisms of people attacking the Supreme Court' legitimacy).

19.) You support mass incarceration even for innocuous offenses or execution by cop for POC while doing nothing but protect rich white criminals who engage in such things as tax fraud, money laundering, sex trafficking, rape/sexual assault, falsifying business records, etc.

20.) You are the reason we can’t pass:—Universal background checks—An assault weapons ban—The ‘For the People/Freedom to vote’ Act or John Lewis Voting Rights Act—The ERA & Equality Act—The Climate Action Now Act—The (Stopping) Violence Against Women Act—the Supreme Court expansion.

21.) You do not seek office to govern, represent, or serve the American people. You seek power solely for its own sake so you can impose your narrow-minded puritanical will on others at the expense of their most fundamental rights and freedoms like voting and bodily autonomy.

22.) Ok, last one. You are trying to eliminate social security and Medicare that tens of millions of our parents rely on and paid into their entire lives. And you did everything to maximize preventable deaths from COVID leaving millions of us in mourning.
So, MG, unless you somehow can figure out how to make the list above attractive to GenZ, Zellennials, Millennials, and a little over half of GenX the world is going to change in short order. I don’t think more Jesus is the answer any more.
