In NYC, there is a very real discussion about the future of our "two" parties. The media likes to paint Cuomo as a centrist, when he's really a conservative. He's about the conservation of existing, and broken institutions. Meanwhile, Zohran is painted as an extremist. I personally view his ideas as pretty moderate and reasonable. Only in a distorted media landscape do you get people calling livable wages, and fresh ideas about how to keep grocery prices lower as "far-left."

I'm tired. I'm so tired of the present state of politics, and I'm ready for the future.

We're waiting for this crop of old politicians to retire so we can let new ideas into the space. The establishment democrats are holding back much, much needed change. They do absolutely nothing to protect democracy or human rights. They talk a big game, and fail to deliver. When the GOP is in power, they destroy human rights and defy the constitution and the will of the people. It's a forever ratchet right.

Out with the old, and in with the new. Let's primary these old ideas out.
