Fuck old bigots, they can't die off fast enough.
Young people being open minded is what we should celebrate.
It's like you refuse to understand how elections work.
Also, a lot of those 'old bigots' are in their 40s and 50s; they're going to be around for the next few decades. You may be happy waiting until 2044 for a big win, but most people aren't
We aren't going to win consistently by appeasing terrible people who can't change for the better without being celebrated. They will backslide the moment they run into anything that reinforces their bigotry if they don't keep getting praised for being a decent person in public.
I am in my 40s and have seen this multiple times, people temporarily stopping their bigotry for a while because of pressure from friends but then reverting the moment some bigoted group makes them feel good about their bigotry again.
The only ones that overcome their negative influences long term are the ones who actually felt bad about how they acted in the past.
So, by your own words, we should keep them engaged.
Yes, engaged by acknowledging they have changed but not celebrated by making news stories about it.
