Comment on I'm just like some ordinary dude upset about what the government is doing. Doesn't anyone with any sort of means or influence care? Where are those guys?

The younger generation has a problem with externalizing their issues to others without feeling responsible for these issues themselves.

There is always some other party with influence and power who should take care of them like a parent and when they don’t, everything is the fault of that “parent”.

For example, it’s the “DNCs fault” we’re in the state we’re in apparently even though a lot of people didn’t vote and encouraged others not to vote. The democrat party is not some nebulous nefarious entity that exists to cater to your whims. It’s made up of people. People like you who got together with other people to try to enact their views and vision for the country.

If you don’t like that vision, you need to get with other people who share your vision, start from the ground up, win local elections and start changing the party bit by bit. But this is hard work and much more difficult than screaming that the octogenarian politicians are ruining your life when nobody your age is actually doing anything to replace them because no younger people want to become career politicians.
