I'm a Boomer. Born in 1964. I've gotten a lot more liberal as I've gotten older. Went from Libertarian to Bernie supporter.

You site a tribe of 65,000 primitives in Africa in a conversation about the modern, internet level, instant communication, spacefaring society of eight billion people. Their culture doesn't scale.

And he talks like this: Jayson Boebert said he told police he does not want to press charges. “I don’t want nothing to happen,” Jayson Boebert said. “Her and I were working through a difficult conversation.”

I'm pretty sure nothing isn't going to happen.

If Trump were working a glory hole you'd have people accusing you of abusing the mentally handicapped. Not even joking.
