You vote matters, and therefor how people voted and continue to vote matters. Honestly, Gen Z is on my Shitlist for voting Trump back in.
Boomers did that shit. Not us.
I'm sorry to break it to you but Gen Z saw the largest shift towards conservatives in the youth demographic ever recorded. 7% more women 18-29 voted for Trump in 2024 than in 2020, and 15% more men 18-29. The youth voter turnout also decreased by as much as 10%. LINK TO SOURCE
This is true, but it's also true that the internet did it to them because nobody ever held any technology companies accountable while there was still time. Every time I hear some idiot talk about how the dumbing down of technology was necessary because normal people don't want to have to understand technology to use it, I remind them that not understanding technology is 90% of what got us to this point.
