the conceit of leftists is that they are godd and pure... but they never are and it NEVER works out, just makes them insufferaby sanctimonious along the way. I was raised completely leftist btw, by good people, but I saw the craven insides of all their friends.
I didn't say the boomers weren't the way you describe, I said you're just like them, lofty ideals, all too human boundaries and self control.
