Here’s something I don’t get


How are the children of parents who gave republicans huge margins in the 80s so liberal?

Aren’t parents generally the biggest influence on children’s political beliefs?

Parents take part in Reagan revolution, their kids turn around and act exactly the opposite

Same thing applies to the parents of Reagan voters

Gave fdr and Johnson huge margins, kids turn around and vote Reagan and gop and Nixon hugely





It's almost like kids rebel against their parents

A runaway train straight to hell. Make everyone more dependent on government, allow government to control every aspect of life. Anyone that isn’t onboard is portrayed as evil racist old white men capitalists. It’s out of control from every angle.

It’s like the villain’s masterplan in a comic book.

Ok I’ll go to poli board now.

Preferably, those evil white men will be emasculated, relieved of their property, and sent back to Europe to politely die.

Then the money will dry up, they’ll start attacking each other, then the evil white men will come across the sea and take their shite back.

Aren't Gen Zs as old as 24? Seems like they purposely skewed the results by sampling the younger ones.

Yeah, this is the first snowflakey report I've seen of Gen Z. They've generally been polled as libertarian leaning.


This is generally always true.

Libertarians skew young because it's a very immature ideology. It's popular among college-aged people in particular, as it is at a period in life for a lot of these people where they're experiencing their first bits of responsibility and freedom, yet are still mostly tethered to their parents for financial support.

A lot of them conflate that with personal self-reliance.

I’m already convinced that by the time I have grandkids, the world will just be one huge third world shithole thanks to liberals.

Generations are leftists’ wet dreams. Putting massive amounts of people in one big box so you don’t have to take people at an individual level.

This is the result of two things:

1. The notion that everyone has to go to college
2. The transformation of our colleges from institutes of higher learning into progressive/socialist propaganda camps.

Thus, whereas kids use to go to college and get an actual education, now more than anything they receive political indoctrination. Gen Z is the fruition of the plan progressives have strived for since the early 20th century.

Not only that, but they criticize liberals for thinking with emotions instead of facts, when they are the biggest believers in Christianity, which is entirely crazy and baseless unless you think purely emotionally.

The extreme left and the SJW’s are fricking nuts, but the majority of millineals know that, but they also know that the extreme right are a bunch of fricking idiots

What were the Baby Boomers views in the 60s? Surely, it was more liberal than this.
