    Ohhhh, young people didn’t vote hard enough.

    The entire political scene is 70+ but it’s young peoples fault that the country is falling apart.

      Young people don’t deserve instant blame, but it’s a catch 22 that only young people can break, so even if it’s not their fault, it’s their responsibility.

      They don’t vote because they don’t see representation for their issues. They don’t see representation for their issues because they don’t vote.

      Right now they complain while not voting in large consistent numbers. If young people simply voted consistently in as high numbers as the elderly, they both would have representation and no reason to complain.
