    Completely disagree. I don’t have kids, but my niblings are cool as shit. The oldest one has become a misinformed centrist but that’s about as bad as it gets. Thinking of them and other examples, I am hopeful for Gen Z. Hopeful for them personally, their future will suck more than mine.

      Gen Z are electing people like Donald Trump and the AfD, threatening to overthrow democracy if we end TikTok, and openly opposing NATO. They’re the fucking New Boomers, whoever called them Zoomers must have been a psychic. They’re iPad Babies who grew up with a world of knowledge and opportunity and used it to ignore reality.

      I’m allowed to state MY FEELINGS on the matter, I feel like Gen Z is MASSIVELY disappointing.

        Any and all generations voted for Trump. What a dumb thing to say.

          This is one of many examples of Gen Z reversed the trend on conservatism declining in elections across the globe.

            Right because expecting someone in their early 20s to make a more rational decision than someone in their 30-40s totally makes sense.

            Again literally ever single generation voted for Trump. Trying to call out a specific generation is hilarious and ignorant.
