Can we at least learn from this and the fall of the #sovietunion that a #gerontocracy that doesn't represent its people or stay up on new tech will always fall? We need the same percentage of #elderly people as make up the population. When that gets lopsided the nation is caught with its pant down easily.

@faraiwe Not what we're talking about here. YOU said "the #gerontocracy of the #dmeocraticparty needs gone.."
That is diff than saying someone barred the young from leadership.
Yours was a blanket statement about older Dems (which you spelled wrong.. might want to change that)
So we're discussing 2 different things here.
1: Nobody should be barred from leadership for age. That's not why the olds are barring them. They hate Progressives, not youth.
2: Age shouldn't be a factor for anything

@GottaLaff the #gerontocracy of the #dmeocraticparty needs gone..
We don't want "strong worded letters" or legislation to address this", anymore. It never worked. WII we sent hundreds of thousands of ARMED people to take out nazis, not "strong worded letters".
We have a full #nazi #coup taking place and those old, useless, doddering imbeciles keep babbling about how to please their billionaire donors.
YOUNG, PROGRESSIVE, UNCOMPROMISING, BOLD, FIERCE leadership.
NOW.
The #gerontocracy is shutting down in real-time, unable to grok what it permitted.
Culture changes one funeral at a time.

The liberal #gerontocracy is terrified that AOC and Jasmine Crockett might be the only Democrats you’re hearing from, because #culture changes one funeral at a time, and that means they will be attending their own.

Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the United States and if we don't wake up we may not have a United States."
Well, they gave us fascism, so it is only appropriate that the Gerontocracy get their participation medals before we all die in the forthcoming collapse.

The #gerontocracy never goes quietly into that good night.
The #gerontocracy is shameless.
That will be you one day, might as well get used to being ruthless.
The #gerontocracy is not your friend.

Rep. Kay Granger, reportedly in assisted living, transferred home deed for $10
This is quite possibly a swindle and elder abuse. I wonder if she has a family or court appointed guardian and what their role is in this. Certainly, all of her aids participated in scamming her constituents by pretending that she is still functioning as an elected official. How many of them are part of this part of the con as well?

Wow. "A Republican congresswoman from Texas [Kay Granger] has not cast a vote in the US House since July while she has been living at a memory care facility – something she did not disclose to the public, according to a Dallas media outlet that figured out the reason for her prolonged absence."

@servelan @jstatepost
The fact that octogenarian #BernieSanders’ name is still being referenced at this stage is a sign that the #gerontocracy will NOT go quietly into that good night AND the complete failure of #SuccessionPlanning is cringe AF.

How many primetime speakers at the DNC have dentures?

Nearly two-thirds of Democrats said President Biden should step aside and allow the party to select a different nominee, according to a new poll from the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. #gerontocracy #resignBiden #election2024

Dr. Mom spent years as the medical director at a couple nursing homes during her career.
She has a lot of experience around geriatric patients.
She said the challenge with older folks is their defiance.
They revert to child-like states.
With defiant kids, you can force them to do something.
It’s not the same with defiant elderly folks.
She thinks Biden is being irrationally stubborn, which happens to a lot of older folks.

This is a bad take and you should feel bad about it.
Biden is our candidate and only a vote for Biden stops Trump.
