This thread is a massive circlejerk. I haven't seen anyone on this forum claim Gen Z is a right wing generation, whats the point of parading around like a pack of show-ponies over this issue?

I guess you're not familiar with the discussions from 2016/2017, where a small number of articles suggesting generation z had conservative inclinations was making the rounds. Notably, one from the UK, which had its own issues - one being that it wasn't even for America.

You don't even need to go back that far, actually. Here is one from late 2018:

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!

I don't buy this nonsense conservative GenZ argument (which seems to be a product of the most internet poisoned discourse), but a fair counter to BRTD's argument would be that there could be an ever-growing divergence between Generation Z whites who go to college and those who do not.

There is, but it's mostly just insanely Democratic vs modestly Democratic:
