All my memes are stolen.

I’m not 50, and I am part of the PC master race.

    Less genZ vote right wing proportional to every other group. This only changes when comparing specifically small group of genz men to men and women Millennials in cherry picked articles.

    More Millennials voted for Trump than GenZ proportionally.

    More GenZ VOTE than Millennials

    The propaganda around the red wave of young genz is just a huge cope and idiots eat it up.

      Isn’t it cherry picking data when you show data on the 2022 midterms? The 2024 election is the one that really fucked things up, I think that should be the data that’s most relevant.

        If you read the graphic for 5 seconds you see this is tracking the first possible year this generation could vote.

        In their first ever election more genz voted than Millennials and voted more blue.

        Don’t worry tho, because genz as a generation voted more blue than Millennials in 2024 as well.

        The point I made is you people have absolutely nothing to whine about when it comes to how genz votes.

          Methinks you’re hiding the 2024 data because there was indeed a shift to the right by GenZ in 2024. Everyone knows election results are always about the margins since most people just vote the same way as their parents. So the margins and trends matter. If there is a marginal shift to the right be GenZ, this is a significant problem since people tend to get more conservative as they get older.

          It’s also very concerning that young white men shifted towards voting for a crazy old white man when he was running against a competent black woman. You’re trying to hand wave away that as some weird anomaly, but what caused that “anomaly”? Is there something about our culture causing that? Is our culture changing in a way that won’t happen again, or will that “anomaly” become more pronounced in the future?

          Does GenZ have a greater tendency to vote along gender or ethnic lines? That’s an indication the maybe the kids are not alright. Is misogyny a successful campaign strategy now?

          We obviously can’t know how things will play out in the future. But there is cause for concern when the trends are going in the direction they are.

    I’m not sure exactly what this meme is trying to say. What I am extrapolating from it however is a personal question, where is Gen Z? I genuinely see less than 10 people who even look like they could be a part of Gen Z at every protest I go to. Its always older people. Where are the people who are in college and just graduated? Why aren’t they fighting for their own rights?

        The computerization of consoles (aside from Nintendo) is what pushed me to just got all-in on PC gaming. Each new generation of XBox and Playstation gets closer to being “PC lite.”

      Biden kept iterating how he is a Zionist through and through and had Netanyahu humiliate him publicly multiple times and still followed suit to Israels demands. If Biden or a similar DNC ghoul cabinet under Harris was in power there is no indication they would do anything different from Trump now.

      Biden didn’t even bother to negotiate again with Iran after Trump killed the JCPOA during his first term.

      Hillary Clinton campaigned on the promise of invading Iran in 2008

      “I want the Iranians to know that if I’m the president, we will attack Iran,” Clinton said in an interview on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

      “In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them,” she said.

      This seems to have been to match the energy of former Iranian president Ahmadinejad

      Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad outraged the international community in 2005 by saying “Israel should be wiped off the map.” A week ago, a senior Iranian army commander said Iran would “eliminate” Israel in response to any military attack from the Jewish state.

      While Iran seemed to have tone down since then, Israel and the US made clear where they stand in the “obliteration” business in the past week. This of course is preceded by the whole genocide business that enjoys strong bipartisan support in the US.
