    I have been saying for the past 6 - 8 years that Gen Z is the future, they are different, they are compassionate, etc. My opinion changed on that Tuesday in a bad way.

      Turns out that growing up with a phone in their hand made a lot of them particularly susceptible to right-wing propaganda.

        I agree that this is the lesson, but it’s bolstered by decades of bad behavior by the previous generations who chose not to leave a livable world for their children.

        Ten Z didn’t vote Trump in. They simply voted for Kamala less.

            Maybe they bought into Kamala’s messaging that Trump had no chance and that even Republicans hated him. No point turning up if its as good as won.

              That’s not the message I saw. I saw him being considered an imminent threat, unlike in 2016.

      They’ve been raised to believe their thoughts are valid and they should speak up, instead of shutting the fuck up and listening until they have enough experience.

        Sorry, but that was a “kids these days” moment.
