The door wouldn't be rotating anymore than it is now.

And what's your source on young people not helping anything? All the times in US history that we made the most progress were under young Democrat presidents.

I didn't say young people don't help anything. I said having only new young people all the time doesn't help. Having people with experience is a good thing.

Do you think JFK had no experience? He became president at 47. Did he "not help", as you put it?

Your claim is not only vague but has also been presented without any reasoning.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Why are you trying to argue? It was a general statement I made, I'm not presenting a case study.
Chill out, goddamn.

[-] Rodeo@lemmy.ca -1 points 9 months ago

Because the statement you made doesn't have sound reasoning.

In other words, you're wrong.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 0 points 9 months ago

Just because you're missing the point it doesn't mean the other person is wrong.

Ok let's hear the reasoning then.
