zoomers are not generation zyklon that’s a stupid loving anglin meme. they’re growing up in the same capitalist hellscape as the rest of us, and as long as reactionary politics are propped up by capital and carry the implicit message that Capital Is Good Actually, it will never attract any but the most terminally Internet brained young people.

There's no evidence besides "drat this looks pretty bad" to indicate we're losing an entire generation of kids to Ben Shapiro. White male kids maybe but like lol look at what they were up to before. The rest are off poisoning their brains with something less stupid or are doing the dumb kid poo poo every single dumb kid has done since the 1900s.

my biggest concern about this gen is that we've never had a much easier way of disseminating white power ideology than we do now nazis have always been around, sure. but they never had social media to help spread their belief system as they do currently

to be honest trying to tap an entire generation is pointless as they are made up of a lot of smaller groups with vastly different experiences. Like most generational stuff just seems to boil down to middle class whites, which just call em that

Holy poo poo this actually happened https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/04/mayors-bid-to-censor-article-on-henry-fords-anti-semitism-goes-viral.html In general, because I started this discussion -- thanks guys, maybe I'm reading too much into all this poo poo. I've been particularly broke brained over the past few months for a bunch of reasons (some political, some personal) and I've been pretty low on hope for the future lately.

someone who goes by cargo cult assuming an entire generation is fascists because of niche media existing is loving magnificent the children of republicans seek out things that allow them to recapitulate their parents' politics. the same people were ranting about how Star Wars was ruined by liberal propaganda forty years ago, to the same audience of doughy sexless little shits seeking something to lash out at. the leftmost possible point in the discourse, for our generation, was the Rally To Restore Sanity. remember that any time you start hyperventilating about how media is brainwashing the kids to be right wing.
