Eh, plenty of Boomers will say they want those things but then shoot down any attempts at them as "not the right way". These are the kinds of people who showed up to the Democratic primaries in 2020 and voted for Joe Biden. If they really wanted these things they'd vote in the primaries for politicians who are fighting for them.
Eh, plenty of younger people will say they want those things but then decide not to vote for the Democrat candidate who made it as the nominee because they didn't pass some purity test. And that hands power to the fascists.
I voted for Biden. And Clinton. And Harris. In the general election, because not doing so was a vote for fascism. I also voted for different people in the primaries because that was my chance to vote for a progressive.
