Two things - first, I agree A.B. is a usually a downer and I'll repeat on this thread that student loan forgiveness is helping more middle aged folks than under 30 because so much of it is streamlining the administrative process of laws passed by Congress in 2007 to forgive the balance of loans people have been paying for 20 years undergrad and 25 for graduate school + public service loan forgiveness for those who have worked for a qualifying agency for 10+ years. Please, can those facts penetrate the Bulwark commentators? Second, your recent guest Simon Rosenberg mentioned that the college students being impacted by cancelled commencement ceremonies are the same kids (for the most part) who didn't get to have high school graduation ceremonies and they are not not happy with this additional disruption.
The other thing that is always left out of the loan forgiveness debate is that it doesn't apply only to rich kids that went to Harvard. A lot of it is directed at for-profit schools and other post-secondary institutions that train lower-income kids for trades. The GOP is painting it as relief solely for the Dem elites. That's not accurate (surprised that GOP would be inaccurate, right?).

All true, except AB is *always* a downer. Except her The Day After special. That was just phenomenal.
I like her a lot though. I just turn my Eeyore filter way up. She’s very funny.
Eyesore filter, lol. That's great.
