GRUMPY Old Men Are HURTING The CONSERVATIVE Movement (MENTIONS FR!!!)
YouTube ^ | 8/1/20 | Patrick Rooney

Posted on 08/01/2020 4:01:17 PM PDT by rebuildus

Patrick Rooney, Founder of Old School™, laments the slide of heroic white, conservative men into "grumpy old men."

Meanwhile, it is often taking black men, black women, and black woman IMMIGRANTS to inspire new blood into the movement, too often leaving "grumpy old men" in the dust.

One of the reasons for the existence of Old School™ is to "teach old dogs new tricks"—to re-inspire "grumpy old men" to return to being the "happy warriors" of old. It is not too late—for grumpy old men or America!

If it wasn’t for Grumpy Old White Men, we’d all be speaking German right now. Or Japanese.

Absolutely valid points made.

Too many of those types that are just defeatist losers that mistook their years of sitting on their ass thinking the right stuff but really just complaining, or turning the other cheek because hitting back was benieth them, as “fighting”, and then whine when stuff goes wrong, and YES the obnoxious ones that are just waiting for Jesus to swoop in and fix stuff and thus think they can just sit and wait. A bunch of them are part of NeverTrump inc. too.

This is why most of the younger set are over on TheDonald. They dont care if they offend the ladies at church if they say something “spicy” and dont care if some 70 year old conservative thinks memes are dumb.

Now there is nothing wrong with being a little grump. LOL! But grump cant be an excuse to slow the young down. They move fast, and it’s good to let them power ahead.

These are the people who hate us and we're never going to get them to like us no matter how nice we are.

A good portion of this American rot are young WHITE people. The most unhinged and psycho seem to be WHITE WOMEN/GIRLS who lost their sh*t over Floyd and Corona.

If by grumpy he means worldly, experienced, properly educated, well informed, courageous, skeptical, critically thinking, any too old to have been poisoned by the Socialist compromised education system I guess I would agree.

The only classical “grumpy old men” I’ve seen in this election have been Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders. They are the poster children for grumpy.

I have put in a lot of effort to become a curmudgeon.
I’m not going to throw that all away on some newfangled fad.

+.Both Mrs Mad and myself ran for and got seats on local school boards etc. We were/are struck by how few conservatives showed up for meetings. We also attended county supervisor meetings on a regular basis through the years. We were outnumber by 10 to 1 at most meetings. The left showed up in force at every meeting. The world is run by those that show up.

Can’t build a movement with grumpy people.

Poppycock! Find out what they're "grumpy" about and others might get "grumpy" too.
(and grumpy sounds just like the black people mentioned in the video)
Do the things that make them irritated/irritable make you irritated/irritable as well? /rhetorical question
Examples -
1. NO, that's a baby you're murdering, not some blob of tissue you're removing!
2. Blacks lives don't matter to BLM or else they would have been speaking out against black on black crime.
America might need more grumpy men and women, young and old alike.

What is described as "grumpy old men" may be more
accurately described as 'totally p|$$ed off old men'
who see their nation being brought to ruin and they
don't have the means or wherewithal to change anything.

And in the mean time all this video does is make those same grumpy old men
even more grumpy because they're being painted with a broad brush.

They may just as well have called a basket of deplorables.
