re: #100 No Malarkey!

Campus activists are not representative of young voters in general, most of whom aren’t in college. Voters under 30 have very similar concerns as older voters do. Inflation and healthcare are their top two issues, and climate change, Israel/Palestine and student debt don’t rate very high as salient issues.

Yeah, that was the case over 40 years ago—the average person didn’t give a shit about apartheid. But we still went out and protested anyway.
