    I imagine Mitch McConnell isn’t too far behind.

    I get it, aging sucks, but it’s part of the deal. You can’t live forever and there is a time to move on.

      Now imagine the terrifying future where there are expensive treatments available that allow these toxic humans to live much much longer. Allowing the power brokers whose viewpoints were cemented many decades ago to continue to rule over others

      The idea that society progresses one funeral at a time has some merit.
