Chuck Schumer is not only failing to meet the moment by not opposing the war on Iran. He has long been a hawk on Iran among Democrats and Americans who are yearning for peace.

    If that Fourth Turning thing turns out to be right - and Zeus help us if it does, the boomer generation will be viewed as a Renaissance era

      Shrug, you can laugh I guess? Even if it’s quite en vogue at the moment to lay all the problems at the feet of one generation, I think it’s incredibly simplistic and naive to do so. Especially when we can see an incredible rise in younger men embracing the tenets of fascism right now, and they are nowhere near the age of boomers.

      This is the boomers we are talking about, and they contain multitudes. They fought for gay rights, they fought for civil rights, they fought for women’s rights. Prior to the boomers, women could not even have a bank account without a man in their life signing off on it.
