As opposed to blaming somebody who has nothing to do with it?

Darn those zoomers always blaming the correct people!

To be fair, Americans of all ages frequently blame the incorrect people, so this is a pleasant surprise.
I was expecting to see a lot of "Biden promised debt relief but WHERE IS IT?!?"

True, and most of those people are Gen X (my age) or boomers (even older)
It's definitely a good trend in the right direction, and hopefully it rubs off on the rest of us before it's too late

These millennials and zoomers are really destroying the false narrative industry!

In this timeline somehow heavily conservative states grow the more they attack progressive platforms and not just with conservatives but with very liberal people too. So anything could happen, there's a gay Republican organization and they support a party that wants to kill them. Nothing makes sense.

I mean, 5% said Democrats and 10% said Biden were responsible.
I wonder if there were coherent arguments for that position, other than either the "they are at fault for everything!" arguments, or "they didn't push HARD enough!"

young americans notice water is indeed, wet

But water is not in and of itself wet.
skulblaka@kbin.social · 8 pts · 3y
Yes it is. "Wet" means being covered in water. Water is covered in water unless you have a singular free-floating H2O molecule, which you don't. This was a bullshit argument from the very beginning and your pedantry is not doing anyone any favors in a political discussion, least of all yourself.

It was a reference to a funny old viral video. Calm down mate.
