Youβre absolutely correct! I have two adult children who are both queer and brown. They are petrified to be out there! Iβm at least in a het-presenting relationship, and Iβm white, so Iβm a lot less targeted.

By the way, my father was raised in the depression, too. He also remembered. Hereβs the tricky part. He was already drinking FOX News and backing supporting Trump in 2013. He would be MAGA now. Also, those 3 jobs are in a field in which I have a masters degree. Iβm not working menial jobs!

Have you considered the idea that boomers are the major demographic protesting because of retirement? Younger people want to get involved and still have families to feed, and house. I am 54, solidly Gen X and I am out there every chance I get between my THREE jobs that total 60 hours a week. π€·π»ββοΈ

They want you to drop out because they want to continue to be spineless, greedy people! They get free healthcare, they make millions off insider trading, they pat republicans backs & glad-hand to only get shafted. They want status quo, most of them. WE THE PEOPLE WANT FREEDOM! healthcare & rights!

So far, House Republicans have:
- Blocked tougher money laundering laws
- Blocked tougher foreign bribery laws
- Blocked tougher hate crime laws
- Blocked tougher cybersecurity laws
