Everyone loves a good distopian fiction. I loved Omega Man and Soylent Green and The Stand. Actually The Stand started out pretty good but ended up really stupid and confusing like all Stephen King stories. But Omega Man was good. And Planet of the Apes. And I have been watching Walking Dead for years. Our young people think that the world will end because that is easier for them than it is to get a job and support themselves with the lame ass indoctrination that they were told was going to prepare them to be global citizens.

The good news... 49% of our youth still see through the full court press to propagandize them.

“the good news... when all these gullible kids eventually figure out they have been lied to and hood-winked.. they will most likely be the future of conservatism”

With NO country of Europe having children at a rate of eben replacement,let alone increase, there is only a MUZZY FUTURE for all of Europe ....

The USA will only be “Latinized”..much better than MUZZYFIED..

These young people were raised on video games and escapist sit com plots.

At that age, I had already read most of the stuff that was ‘required reading’ in college

I agree. We could be wiped out within 15 years. Asteroid strike, EMP, pandemic, CME, financial collapse, nuclear war.

These are the things people should be worried about.

Yet, they continue to contribute to the earth’s demise by their very existence.

They taught every last one of us the same thing in 5th and 6th grades. That was in 1969 and 1970. By 1974 I figured most of the populist message was pure crap. It’s part of growing up.

How many of those are leftists who consider wiping out humanity a worthy goal?

The Sun could go out or go nova (very unlikely, but we still don’t know all the factors why this happens at all).

If the sun went out or went nova it'd be 9 minutes before we knew.

Nothing personal...but do you really think the over 25s are much better than the newbie voters? In general..there is so much ignorance in our population it is hard to split it up based on age. We seem to be heading to political and social chaos and soon military or paramilitary rule.

Oh yes. It's a maturity thing. I guess, since there are so many stupid people you might be better off just getting rid of the franchise altogether, but reality dictates you have to make some points of distinction. Eliminate the stupider and the stupidest, and keep the simply stupid.

I wonder where the so-called young people got that idea from.

They are so stupid that they won’t be able to find the polling locations.

It could be in an outhouse wrapped in camo tarps, 40 miles out into the deepest woods. If getting their loans forgiven is on the ballot, they'll find it.

Yeap that is about right. 25 to 35 is when people are able to think for themselves. Not just rebel against their parents.

As far as the newbie voter thing is concerned, 35 is the new 18.

THAT is why we’re SCROOOOOOD.

History just repeats, more or less. When I was a kid 'children' and hysterical adults were still sure the world was going to end due to nuclear holocaust years after the Cuban Missile Crisis(even though we got there through high level incompetence) and now some children and adults are afraid the world is going to end due to global warming.

In the first case there was at least some basis in reality but hysteria was driven up by educators and Hollywood. In the latter case it is much more extreme because of the almost total control of our children's minds by socialist 'educators' in both lower and higher education and constant bombardment of all of us by all facets of the media using false facts, projections and fear mongering.

I am convinced when this hysteria is finally behind us(one way or the other ; ), another will rise to take it's place because there are just too many sheep in humanity that beg to be herded instead of actually thinking for themselves.

Then they don’t need social security or relief from student loans.
