I love how they assume that we’re all a bunch of young kids, I’m in my 40’s and I remember doing nuke drills in elementary school and getting shown where the fallout shelters were, my stepdad is just as Left as I am and is twenty years older and his schools also had fallout shelters and nuke drills.
I’d say they need to stop generalizing people, but if they understood nuance and context they probably wouldn’t be republicans, however there are plenty of Republicans that do know the differences but just aren’t arguing in good faith, now I’m definitely also generalizing them as well by saying that. The people who aren’t aware of their generalizations need to realize that old people can be lefties, and young people can be righties, there is no age limit for becoming a fascist asshole and there’s no age limit for realizing that capitalism only benefits the wealthy.
Or how about the last few years? Iran threatening nukes, North Korea with ballistic missile threats, Russia threatening to nuke everyone every other day, china building relations with Cuba, drills happening off of Alaska.
I mean, do we face these threats today, no? No idea what that tweet is saying.
Good points, and don’t bother trying to decipher it, at best Clay is just being an ornery old cuntnugget, at worst he’s purposely saying this for political clout, I just ignore him, he’s not saying anything smarter than any other Republican right now.
Higher up Republicans are also known to fake their opinions for clout/money. Just look at the Tucker Carlson court reveals. Or Trump vastly changing his views to meet what the base wants.

Children today do active shooter drills. I would argue that’s more stressful than nuclear drills as a concept.

Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio are notorious for that garbage too.
