I am a fan of The Squad, but they are young and sometimes go too far.

They are after all just human :)>.

But I mostly put that in to assuage those who like to see me as a left wing nut, to show I am flexible :)>.

Never worry about any conversation being about me against you, I always simply see it as us talking.

We should not always agree, we both know different things and so it is best for us to be open so we can catch each other mistakes or blind spots, and make our case.

In the end we all have intellectual deficiencies, or just different values and priorities.

<,

When you speak ill of the Squad you're writing against those who are trying to create a world where fossil fuels stop destroying the planet. They're leaders in every sense of the word. I think the older folk don't get that part yet. AOC has two degrees, one in economics. She can run circles around any conservative or moderate.

Anyway, I don't want this to be me against you. We disagree from time to time and I'm okay with it. I'm trying to explain.

Manchin would have told President Kennedy to go half way to the moon. Moderates and conservatives don't make history. They're too afraid.
