Older gen Z guy here. A lot of gen Z guys are dumber than bricks and have been specifically propagandized to since middle school or younger. I was part of the first wave during gamer gate and the only reason I broke free is because I have the perfect mix of autism, superiority complex, and inferiority complex which fully kicked in circa 2015 and overrid the propaganda hard. Basically I looked at Trump and came to the conclusion that I am better than him in every way even with my perpetual fuck up status and thusly anyone who supports him inherently are less than him and thusly less than me.
I broke away on a fluke of batshit insane psychology, most of these younger guys especially have to touch the stove to know it’s hot.
I will correct you. A lot of people are dumber than bricks. At least gen z got the internet access when their brains were still free of junk that govs showed on tv 24/7. From my observations it is the older population think that god exists, and stupid fakes on tik tok are reliable source of information. What gen z lack is manners, cause their parents didnt give a shit and just ipaded their way out of parenting
Guess I can’t talk. Gen X was one of the biggest trump supporters, but knowing my cohort I just assumed they were all a bunch of leftover homophobes and racists like a lot of our parents were. I was mostly the same but I also have AuDHD and have an incredibly difficult time with hypocrisy and injustice, so things like religion or anyone claiming superiority over others, regardless of reason, while being an absolute tool themselves really turned me off to the whole racist and homophobic social standards of the day. Took a few years to get away from the casual, unthinking racism - not actually being hard core racist, but the casual kind where you told racist jokes and made sweeping judgements about a group while still maybe going to school with them them and getting along just fine.
Do they not think for themselves? Can they not see how trump performed historically? Why did they think he would suddenly be different this time?
