"why won't democrats elect corpses," say people who don't wonder why the Democrats lost the Supreme Court, presidency, Judiciary Committee, and Obama's Senate supermajority due to gerontocrats' refusal to retire over the last twenty years

I mean sure, young radicals might support court expansion, but the gerontocrats in leadership would never come around

The weird thing about those recently resurfaced Reagan clips is I remember him as being ancient and too old for the job, yet he looks young and vigorous compared to the 21st century gerontocrats.

Saying this when all the lefts hype and support is given to a muslim candidate and you're banking on the same white gerontocrats to save everyone, reeks of projection.

Seriously one thing I think is really underrated about Fury Road is how the villains are a handful of gerontocrats, physically weak oligarchs who have resource hoarded / socially manipulated the young to doing their violent bidding.
Zatoichi movies figured out you give the pathos to the hired muscle villain and make the mob boss/evil lord a venal little shit.

in addition to bashing the gerontocrats who hold onto their seats well past when they should, we should celebrate and praise the dems who do actually manage to retire when they encounter health problems in their 70s. Thank you Congressman Evans for stepping aside!
Democratic Rep. Dwight Evans announces his retirement from Pennsylvania's 3rd District, a Philly seat that's one of the bluest in the nation. Evans, 71, was unable to vote for much of the last Congress due to a stroke, and he's now stepping aside rather than seeking another term.

So instead of “regime change,” are we actually merely doing the younger generation of hardliners a favor by clearing out the gerontocrats?
Iran’s *new* leadership? New like …the president, foreign minister, head of the national security council and chief justice, all of whom are in the same positions they held on Friday?
Exclusive: “I have agreed to talk”: Trump tells @michaelscherer.bsky.social that he plans to speak with Iran’s new leadership. Read more from his interview:

The central motivation of Gerontocrats appears to be old people demanding services and income redistribution from a shrinking pool of young people who are, under no circumstances, allowed to live anywhere near them.
