because he's getting old and grumpy and people under 40 have left him WAY behind and he's particularly resentful about that.

So he talks to the fake lefties who went through the 60s having read the Manifesto without reading any farther and think they have a clue.

I don't know if younger people are better read or if his "I know best because I'm old" act is getting nowhere with them. I'm just glad people my age have also noticed what a threadbare old gasbag he is these days.
