Like Parenti said, they’ll be in until 2030-2040. We don’t even have to actively remove them from office. We just have to wait.
You don’t think that they have heirs lined up? This is carefully planned and prepared, and they have been grooming successors for decades now.
It is a perpetual system.
I really don’t think this is true because we can also see how incompetent these people are when it counts. They didn’t turn the Ukraine into their own next Vietnam (only in the humiliation sense) because they wanted to.
Although it is a bit of poetic injustuce that the “progressive” who unseated Pelosi’s second in the house is also vying for the Speaker’s chair with no better intentions. The cruel twist will come from the fact that she’ll supposedly spurn the capital interests, get her funding from poor people, and still do the exact same shit.
Yeah, the US has some penchant for electing really antique people. Chuds love to bash Biden for being old, but Trump is only three years younger than him.
I don’t really care how old someone is as long as they have control of their mental faculties and they continue to serve the people. But obviously in a capitalist country as the USA that isn’t the case. Same thing with term limits, if they continue to do their job well I don’t care. Obviously I’m speaking about socialist countries though so if a person like Xi (who’s 70) continues doing a good job I’m all for them continuing being in their position.
