The 2008 election caused arrested development in a lot of people

Date: October 9th, 2025 9:01 AM Author: rose goal in life Millenials came of age through 9/11, Afghanistan, Iraq, and the great recession, the whole time being forcefed how evil the right and conservatives were by news and pop culture. This all culminated in the perfect layup, the 2008 election, where the entire media apparatus right up to SNL could dunk on McCain as a warmonger and Palin as a complete retard (not that they were wrong). Taking a hit of the Obama "HOPE" message at that point was nothing short of pure heroin, and created a generation of addicts.
Almost 20 years later you have people approaching their mid-40s who STILL can't wait to see how SNL or John Oliver is going to dunk on conservatives every week. The Democratic Party is still the party of hope and change who is going to save the country. The line was drawn for these people long ago, and nothing since then produced the slightest bit of cynicism or introspection. They post earnestly on facebook, reddit and xitter (UGH cant we just fire Orange Man into the goddamn sun already!!) and can't wait to get out on Saturday morning for this week's No Kings event (maybe [young fiery local Dem politico] will show up to support us!)
They're permanently stuck with the mind of college kids. |

Date: October 10th, 2025 9:37 AM Author: Irradiated Love Of Her Life i actually think it started with the mid-20th century civil rights movement, which was immediately rewritten as the battle of armageddon that was won by a plucky group of a few hundred peaceful marchers in a small town in alabama (because explaining the cynical opportunism of the left and international financiers would be too complicated and undermine the point). played against the backdrop of the anti-vietnam war protests (which, because boomers are boomers, was immediately deemed the coolest thing to have ever happened), who wouldn’t want to be on the side of the angels, fighting for justice while smoking dope and engaging in free love?

Date: October 10th, 2025 10:16 AM Author: rose goal in life Every gen has their struggle and certainly a lot of boomers got addicted to those struggles at that time. I'm just pointing out a lot of millenials specifically got one-shotted in 2008 and it really helps that an Election is a single Event with a Before and an After. They all felt like they had Won and would live in a new post-Republican era forever because the Democratic Party was so clearly and obviously the party of Good.
