There was a lot of talk here and elsewhere that Romney had won the teenage vote in 2012, and that seems very silly now.

Maybe white Gen Zers are more conservative and are swinging right but Gen Z is the most diverse generation which people often forget. Black and Latino Gen Zers may be masking it or the whole group is really just moving left.

But if Gen Z whites were moving right and other races weren't, that should still be provable or disprovable in election data of college towns, when adjusting for what % white the enrollment of the colleges are.

The fact you had to cite examples ranging from 6 months to 3 years prior to the present day reveals the fact that the point of this thread was not to provoke any kind of decent discussion, but to simply fill this subforum with another excuse for low effort posting, circlejerking and nonsensical one-dimensional hot takes.

You really think everyone's opinions change that often? I'm sure if I posted one from a week ago, you'd say "The fact that you had to cite examples ranging from 1 week ago to...."

At any rate, the point of my post was to point out that yes, despite you not seeing it with your own eyes, it does in fact exist.

Now, please, post more about how this board is trash. Don't forget to use the term "circlejerk" again. It's the only way to convey this opinion!

"B-but I still found a poster!!!"
The lengths at which you go to defend this thread is hilariously pathetic. If you wish to delve into the archives of Atlas and find an example from a week ago of a poster heralding Generation Z as the oncoming tide of conservatism for me, then be my guest!
"Conservative"
Gen Z. As I've mentioned in previous threads, the kids have some interesting ideas about what it means to be conservative. They might be religious, but their guiding principle is supposedly rationality. Snooty Aristotelian conservatives, or as Wikipedia calls them, "traditionalist conservatives". Like liberals today, these people get their kicks calling everyone but themselves crazy and acting like they're the voice of reason. They dodge most of the hard questions, much like their beloved philosopher king and Washington outsider nominee, Ben Shapiro. Don't win any electoral votes but siphon young voters from the GOP.

This is a fantasy. Actually, the whole post is a fantasy, but this is especially delirious. All the evidence shows that Gen Z is decidedly NOT conservative. Nobody actually cares about Ben Shapiro offline. Please, for the sake of your own health and sanity, go outside.

He's right, and just because you don't want to believe something doesn't mean it isn't real and happening. Gen Z is a R leaning generation and is definitely more conservative than Millenials.


Yes, that's right. Gen Z is a R leaning generation and they are fed up with the status quo. And there is nothing you can do about it.

Anyone fed up with the status quo is going to be voting Democratic next November, so I hope you're right.

Lol the democrats are the status quo. The democrats are the establishment right now.

If you can't realize or even accept that then you are numb to the head.

Uh, the status quo is the Republican president, Republican Senate, Republican Supreme Court and the state governments that are disproportionately Republican. All Democrats have is the House and that's just been for a few months.

It's like you're trying to get both the irony mine and bad post thread renamed after you...

Guys, my high school was pretty Republican too, therefore Millennials are a strongly R generation.
