using that logic… you’re disenfranchising anyone who isn’t a majority generation.
also, keep in mind there’s already limits on age and who can run for office. saying a cap at, say, 65, is “ageist” is laughable… when there’s already a minimum age of 35. Nobody questions the wisdom of that minimum limit, so why do [* checks notes] Old People™️ get to insist on not having a maximum as well?
any argument you make about 66 being okay also applies to 34. Or 75 and 25. Like I said elsewhere, the problem isn’t that they’re old. the problem is that they’re “senile”. their mind is going. It’s a problem.
If you let people opposed to your ideology vote, they will inevitably vote against your interests. Disenfranchisement is the only real option available to producing meaningful political change that doesn’t involve violence. It’s the same strategy used against the rest of us by conservatives and neoliberals. We’re stupid for not using it against them.
OK but even so, I don’t support the disenfranchisement of boomers so like, it is not improper that they vote for candidates they think represent them

I do. There are excellent politicians in their 40s, 50s, and 60s who have just sat on the sidelines because of this demographic bubble.
That’s a fast track to social security privatization, why do you want to force my grandma to eat cat food?
Lmfao T-T true tho ouch

You’re an idiot for thinking this way
Cool. No leftists get to vote.
Wait you meant just disenfranchise people you don’t like?
