I'm honestly concerned that people will start thinking anyone below 40 is a child who doesn't deserve rights!
Indigenous peoples and minorities of all ages have been infantikized and denied agency and rights, so the playbook seems very similar to me. In general, I believe the goal (or the trend, rather) is to deny agency to anyone who doesn't belong to the owner class, so their lives can be controlled economically and with violence, like many children's are.
Absolutely, absolutely. Very important addition!
I could legit see boomer establishment dems wanting to raise the voting age to 40 or 50
Making 35 year olds old enough to run for president while also being too young to vote for president would be a very good bit.
It’s the most extreme example but you need to be 35 to run for president, when I’d trust a random 25 year old over a random 75 year old any day of the week
I CAN NAME AT LEAST ONE 27 YEAR OLD WHO I KNOW WOULD MAKE A GOOD LEADER OF HIS COUNTRY………
CAN I GET A "TAMAAM, SAYYIDI"?!
Castro was 32 when the Cuban Revolution ended, Che was 30. Sankara was 33.
What am I doing with my life?
Actually Sankara was 9 when the cuban revolution ended☝️🤓
