I mostly agree with you, even if this reads like a shortened college essay. > We're pretty peeved that this blatant deceit is lost on the older generations My parents are 60-70yo, in the streets for Sanders. I don't think you are the only cynic, far from it, but the real problem is when cynicism breeds obedience. You can't believe your cynicism isn't the result of calculation, can you?

> when cynicism breeds obedience Is this meant to mean that persistent cynicism becomes closed-mindedness and a disengagement from the root issues? Would you mind expanding? I believe (to first order) all judgments are based on calculations, but with the caveat of sample bias. So to that end, I have reached this conclusion based on my personal experience with what I've lived and observed. I recognize my limited perspective but cannot comprehend its limits or what lies beyond, but my emotional charge remains fixed to what my experience has shown me so far.
