>>834895i was never one of those "thanks obama" sarcastically people but I was 16 and excited for obama in 2008 simply because it meant the end of bush. i was too young to vote. but by 2012 i was voting for lolbertarains because obama didn't end the bush wars. by the time i realized lolbertarians were a fraud and capitalism was to blame, everyone was voting for trump as an "outsider" while I was watching the DNC fuck this "socialist" guy bernie sanders. then i learned bernie sanders wasn't a real socialist and real openly socialists call for overthrowing the government, and i learned i was a treatler and my life was easy , and blah blah blah, and actually i'm the problem for living in the imperial core. i'm a slow learner. now i have accepted that things will probably just keep getting worse and are way out of my control. i am old and irrelevant. i see kids making the same mistakes i made falling for zohran mamdani, who seems to be obama-meets-sanders, and will prove to be just as disappointing.
