Did you watch the whole thing? Or just the clip on the right wing site. Shame on you claiming to be a socialist and then mentioning clips on right wing sites. Did you seriously get fooled by them.

Or just the clip.

It's true she did call that age group stupid but there was context. The stupid comment was clearly tongue in cheek. It was comments made, based on a study from a program that was run for that age group.

Here is the full transcript:

"So we designed this program around the 18 through 24 [age range] mostly but it was usually up to 30 [years old]. First time, low-level drug sales offender… And here’s what we did. We recognized the fact that 18 through 24 — when I was at Howard University and we were in college, we were 18 through 24, and you know what we were called? College kids. But when you turn 18 and you’re in the system, you are considered an adult, period. Without any regard to the fact that, that is the very phase of life in which we have invested billions of dollars in colleges and universities knowing that, that is the prime phase of life during which we mold and shape and direct someone to become a productive adult. What’s the other thing we know about this population? And it’s a specific phase of life, remember, age is more than a chronological fact. What else do we know about this population of 18 through 24? They are stupid. [Crowd laughs.] That is why we put them in dormitories, and they have a resident assistant. They make really bad decisions. So we focused on that age population."

Anyway I'm sure you are going to make some silly retort.

What right wing site? What are you on about? I said saying young people are stupid and don’t know what they want politically is an old right wing trope the ‘.com’ is a figure of speech. Like LaynesRightWingSafeSpace.com forward slash currupt avatar

Oh so its your own poor interpretation. That's worse.

Of course now that you've read the quote in its full context, and seen that it has nothing to do with "not knowing what they want politically" and rather was a statement that 18-24 years olds have a propensity towards making bad decisions in all sorts of areas of life, you'll presumably be withdrawing your initial comments?

Or perhaps you'd prefer to argue with established medical and neuroscientific fact that the decision making/executive function parts of the brain aren't fully developed until around the age of 25?

Nah you know he won't.

He gets snipets from everything he reads that suits his agenda and then pastes it in here like he just about to own us sad tory dems.

Remember that's the most important part. He needs to keep up his precious reputation and standing on the forum. Facts don't matter.

Shame really.

You may fall for it but I read the subtext.
