It's no surprise to me that these "ones we've been waiting for" activists are completely dysfunctional in their own lives. I've witnessed it first hand multiple times.

Both my wife and I have cousins that are big Dems and activists. One of them is 40+, lives in his parents basement, and is an addict. Can't keep a job although he is capable. His parents are well off and gave him every advantage (he spent seven years trying to get a BA at various schools around the country). But he knows that I shouldn't keep my paycheck and must atone for my white privilege (I grew up lower middle class).

The other one worked for a big Dem politician. Went to an amazing school at a cost around $160K (parents paid it). He now works a service sector job when he's not on a campaign. I have nothing against people who work in the service sector, just pointing out the bad life choices. Lots of other stuff too I won't post. He is very smart and could be very successful but choses to invest his time taking success away from others.

If I woke up and found out either one of them committed suicide it would not surprise me in the least. Not saying I want that to happen, of course, just saying it's almost expected.
