    Every single Gen X I know is so demoralized right now, my own parents who were once apolitical are singing a much different tune now – something that was just a dream for me. This shit is real. Our environment is changing.

      My Gen x parents are being directly effected by a lot of this policy. They used to be non voters and my dad was kind of libertarian/conservative when I was a kid.

      They seem a little more engaged these days and I’m hoping to hear them say something that would make me proud some day
