Interesting observation about 16-30 yo newbie activists and 30+ yo newbie activists. There could be something about the birth cohort, or just about current stage of maturity (or some of each of course). We could check back in 15 years and see if the same pattern repeats with the same ages, or if the pattern shifts upward in age by 15 y…
Interesting observation about 16-30 yo newbie activists and 30+ yo newbie activists. There could be something about the birth cohort, or just about current stage of maturity (or some of each of course). We could check back in 15 years and see if the same pattern repeats with the same ages, or if the pattern shifts upward in age by 15 years. (Joking about doing that, not joking about that being a useful datapoint if one could wait for the results).

So if the distinction you want to make between Stacy Abrams and Marjorie Taylor Greene is the number of years of experience as activists, how many more years of activism would the latter need before graduating from cluster-fuck to activist?
Passion, are we discussing activism, or my opinion of Marjorie Taylor Greene? If you want to discuss Greene, say so. If you want to defend Greene, do it. If you want to praise her, I’d like to hear what she does that pleases you. Your turn.
Talking about activism and the proper definition of the term "activist".
I find MTG atrocious for many reasons. The length of time she has been active is not among them, however.
But the contrast between MTG and Stacy Abrams was used above to distinguish "activists", so I'm looking for what criteria are being used, other than our liking one more than the other. We very likely agree on which of those two we prefer; that is not the issue.
