[Excerpt on #Gaza: “If you really care about Gaza, vote to have a voice, so you can do something about it. And then, be ready to turn out into the streets, in the millions, and fight for it.”]

i would encourage people cracking jokes about the old lady to actually read the article. Turns out she’s pretty cool and has been politically active since her youth. Also proposes a coherent plan for young people who want to make a bigger difference than voting for a 3rd party will ever accomplish.
We know who she is, she hasn’t been relevant in decades and even then only barely so.
sure, young people only interested in names aren’t going to be swayed here. Taylor Swift has that covered.
her message is to politically active young people who may actually listen to what she has to say.
