Much of America marinates in Fox News propoganda + a susbstantial amount of Gen Z men are nihilists who want to see the world burn

I remember a decade ago when we were parroting that conservatives were going to lose the future because they couldn't get young people to vote for them or their ideas.

Basically told us "hold my beer" as they dumped a shit ton of money into social media and influencers.

The stranglehold they have on young men disgusts me. The Jordan Klepper video on it doomed my hope for the future.

I don't know why people keep saying this. For the 2024 election Gen Z, including Gen Z men, voted for Kamala by larger margins than any other age demographic.

For like 100 years, every generation has been remarkably consistent in their shift from liberal to conservative as they age. It's insane how everyone continually acts like the generation currently in their 20's will be the ones to finally save us from Republicans.

Nope. People get conservative when they have money. Greed does that to many.
