#2 that millennials really want from you ‐ that is, your money and your power.

Just call them commies. They have no inhibition to call you fascists.

#7 Skinny jeans and the sport coat or suit jacket that appears to be at least 3 sizes too small. I often wondered if the goal of this type of wear is simply arse exposure. Does anyone here know ?

#11 Among young people socialism seems to be 'everything I like' and capitalism is 'everything I don't like'. There isn't much thought beyond that. They use Democratic socialism to dodge the inevitable history but don't think deeply on how different socialists (Chavez, Mudara, Hitler) were elected before they shut down democratic apparatus.

#12 Historically, the US is run by old men who talk left but govern right-center. As long as I can have 20 more years of that I really don't care what they do to themselves after that. Just don't do it to me. Selfish? You bet.

#14 What #11 (rjschwartz) said ^ !!
The lack of intellectual rigor is mind boggling. They hate Big Business™ but have no clue that replacing it with an all powerful state monopoly simply removes any freedom of choice that they have...

#15 "cognitive elites" is due to the fact that these people were educated beyond their innate ability Self-styled "elites" all have a sense of self-importance that vastly exceeds their native ability. Education only made that misapprehension worse.

#16 I'm most reminded of Pol Pot and his child warriors.
