Just wanted to prove that political diversity ain’t dead. Remember, don’t downvote for disagreements.

        The first ones haven’t developed their brain fully yet, and the second group shouldn’t get to decide the future for the rest since they have so little of it left 😄 I’m also a staunch believer in youth parties forming politics and main parties implementing it

          “Your brain is fully developed at 25” is a popular myth based on one paper that didn’t even say that. It’s just used to take agency away from adults younger than 25.

          One counterargument for the over-75 group is that you could argue they also have more accrued wisdom than any other age bracket.

            Huh, you’re right. It keeps developing until at least 30, so I will have no increase the lower age to 30 than lol. Thanks!

            Absolutely but that is not my argument. Can’t have a bunch of elders voting against decisive climate action because it interferes with what they are used to. No scorched earth voting here no 😄
