      Yeah I’m afraid that the lesson is that Gen Z is not actually the future, they are going to repeat the past. What makes me sad is that they should have been the future but social media made sure that didn’t happen.

        Did social media make sure that didn’t happen, or did the fact that virtually every generation ultimately repeats the mistakes of the one before it ensure that didn’t happen?

      Look at this guy thinking that we can vote our way out of this when we only have two, corporate sponsored, candidates.

      I mean, they did vote for change… just not the change we were hoping for, I guess. Things will most likely change for the worse now.

      That said, real good change wasn’t really on the ballot either.
