Having the plague for a few years during a formative time in their lives and having a ton of time to get sucked into YouTube rabbit holes that invariably start recommending conservative content had a big part to play.
It’s specifically young men that are becoming more right wing. I heard some poll numbers last week since Trump’s approval ratings are tanking. Controlling for male vs female, Gen Z has the biggest gap with 45% of men supporting Trump and 24% of women doing the same in the 18-29 age bracket.
Tbh the COVID shutdown had serious reverberations through the culture that are going to be with us for the rest of our lives. People shouldn’t have been exposed to that much internet.
What shutdown? Do you mean the mass infection events that were constantly happening in bars through 2020 and 2021 followed by the liberal capitulation and peeling off of the already rarely followed public health advice?
There was like a couple weeks where some people were forced to work and school remotely and that was horrible, check your privilege sweaty
P.S. Preaching to the choir here, but more people should wear masks even though we’re more than 5 years in… even if you don’t care about others’ health, there are other benefits to wearing them
Most countries did try to prevent the plague slightly more than the US did. The “shutdown” was probably more about schools being closed for a few weeks/months and young men getting turned insane by youtube propaganda / anti-woke grifters.
Is it true young people are becoming more right-wing or is that just the media trying to start generational warfare bullshit?
Iirc in many countries young men are becoming more right wing while other young people are going further left.
Why, men, why?

Sorry, I tried. I realized society was bullshit and I had sex, but no other men followed me.
Honestly as funny as this is, it’s not really true…I haven’t touched someone in like 6 years and I’m not a Nazi. It’s more than this.
My money is on it being a mix of the algorithm promoting right-wing shit and an ineffectual centrist liberalism being associated with the left.
there’s a fork in the road and it’s down to whether you think women are people or chattel.

Imma guess that there are plenty of young ppl moving left but like always the right wing-ey media erase the left
Not sure but the gender divide in terms of political alignment seems to be getting more stark.
In India the young are full on fash now. Liberals and Leftists exist in some elite circles but the majority is trash.
westoid men are yeah
I fucking hate everything
i hate them specifically
