Bill Maher addressed this phenomena with the younger leftists dismissing the elderly as &#8220;not getting it&#8221;. What is it that the elderly were &#8220;not&#8221; getting? That what the young leftists think is a great idea, like communism, is a disaster waiting to happen.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">From the Daily Wire:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;You know the reason why advertisers in this country love the 18 to 34 demographic?&#8221; Maher said. &#8220;Because it&#8217;s the most gullible. Yeah. A third of people under 35 say they&#8217;re in favor of abolishing the police &#8212; not defunding, but doing away with a police force altogether, which is less of a policy position and more of a leg tattoo. Thirty-six percent of millennials think it might be a good idea to try communism, but much of the world did try it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know, millennials think that doesn&#8217;t count because they weren&#8217;t alive when it happened. But it did happen. And there are people around who remember it. Pining for communism?&#8221; he continued. &#8220;It&#8217;s like pining for Betamax or Myspace. So when you say you&#8217;re old, you don&#8217;t get it. Get what? Abolish the police and the Border Patrol and capitalism and cancel Lincoln? No, I get it. The problem isn&#8217;t that I don&#8217;t get what you&#8217;re saying or that I&#8217;m old. The problem is that your ideas are stupid.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Daily Wire has the rest of the article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/bill-mahers-audience-cheers-as-he-trashes-young-people-with-far-left-views-your-ideas-are-stupid\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One common tactic, by the left, is to misinterpret disagreement with &#8220;not getting it&#8221;.
