One of the most surprising things I've seen since Trump won in November is Justine Bateman speaking up against the corruption on the Left and encouraging people to think for themselves. She has risked being labeled a RACIST or whatever else Hollywood calls members of the 'family' who stray from their plantation these days. It's been almost surreal watching her on X because I grew up watching her as Mallory Keaton, and of course, she played sort of a sweet ditz on the show, who would, every once in a while, have a moment of genius.
Perhaps she was the genius all along and the audience just wasn't smart enough to figure it out.
I absolutely love what she put out there for people under 30, which I assume are mainly GenZ (my kids). Take a look:
If you're under 30, you've most likely been convinced that you need to politically "resist the other side."

You've been cheated.
You deserve to examine each candidate and insist they audition for your vote. After someone is elected, you deserve to examine their actions…
Her post continues:
After someone is elected, you deserve to examine their actions objectively and decide if, in the big picture, this is benefiting America as a whole.
This is not about parties or pledging fealty to a "political team." This is about your right as an American adult to not be told by the media or the oldest people in either party how you should be interpreting policies and actions.
I encourage you to ignore their ridiculous insistence that you give yourself a heart attack over nothing. I encourage you to tell them to zip it, so you can use your own brain and your own instinct to decide if you like the candidate and the resulting policies.
They disrespect your intelligence and innate wisdom.
Their weird panic frenzy is an anomaly, birthed in 2016. It's not the norm, and you intuitively know it.
You don't need them. Make up your own mind. And then let it go, so you can so all those things that have nothing to do with politics.
And they wanted us to believe Alex was the smart Keaton kid.
