Four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump has been successfully selling white Christian nostalgia, racism and xenophobia to his base. However, the Public Religion Research Institute’s massive poll of 6,616 participants suggests that what works with his base might pose an insurmountable problem with Gen Z teens and Gen Z adults (who are younger than 25).
Demographically, this cohort of voters bears little resemblance to Trump’s older, whiter, more religious followers. “In addition to being the most racially and ethnically diverse generation in our nation’s history, Gen Z adults also identify as LGBTQ at much higher rates than older Americans,” the PRRI poll found. “Like millennials, Gen Zers are also less likely than older generations to affiliate with an established religion.”
Those characteristics suggest Gen Z will favor a progressive message that incorporates diversity and opposes government imposition of religious views. Indeed, “Gen Z adults (21%) are less likely than all generational groups except millennials (21%) to identify as Republican.” Though 36 percent of Gen Z adults identify as Democrats, their teenage counterparts are more likely to be independents (51 percent) than older generations.
Hahaha, who reasoned through the physics and utility behind and beyond the sickle? My kids, myself, maybe your kids, but certainly not you.
We builders and engineers will set the world right, as we always have in spite of drooling destructors like you. Notice your love of potential pain and misery, merely discussing and quietly grinning about it. You are the devil.
my ancestors, armed with knowledge of the natural world, created the truest religion, practically all relevant inventions between 600BC and 0AD, and have survived for over 3000 years due to their understanding of natural law, yours are american :)
600 years? That’s so long to make such basic tooling. As expected, you’ve always advertised your weakness as your biggest strengths. Nothing changes, but the years.
When you try to take control again, as incessant low-quality creatures do, we will again excise you.
we invented military technology, societal developments, all of which echo in the world today :)
Weakness as strength, yet again.
Our children of all colors and creeds will hold hands and walk gently into the future, along with this planet and the majesty of all her beings.
Kindness and collaboration are the natural law, time-tested and evinced by nature for far longer than humans have existed.
Goodnight, stranger.
nature is not exclusively kind or collaborative, nature is logical, and the vast majority of creeds in question violate this law and will see the consequences for doing so, either in their personal life dissatisfaction, or by means of meeting problems they cant pass by means of flawed world understanding :)
A little dissatisfaction is all it takes to scare you into rigid, terrified conformity? How pitiful 😂
Notice how nature adapts and thrives on various domains, dynamically and powerfully. The opposite of the very conformity you claim is the key to success 🤦
conformity is not the key to success, contentment with the fact that nature is rigid is the key to success, you can do anything within the bounds of reason lest it result in personal misfortune
I don’t think anyone agrees that nature is rigid, it is in fact fully dynamic, as a system. The rules are simple, but the results are not. I know that’s what you meant, if only your thinking was less occluded by obedience.
Woohoo for freedom!
