The young are gay as gently caress from all the data I’ve seen—they’re queer, depressed, pissed, and less white than ever. Sounds like a good People’s Army to me.

gen z is also pretty nonwhite. demographic arguments do NOT guarantee inevitable progressivism but it sure seems like a decent bulwark against fascism

I can't get a decent link to the study itself on mobile, but here's an article https://amp.usatoday.com/amp/1503758001 Also, lol at people thinking that a generation of poor people steeped in anti-capitalist but shallow political understanding can't be a breeding ground for fash. It's not guaranteed, but nobody on the left is doing the kind of intentional outreach like the far right is.

Farm Frenzy posted:your average zoomer processes the mildly racist influencers they follow on the same level as something like reality tv. i dont think anyone actually takes pewdiepie very seriously I imagine that's the result of growing up in the post-information age where you are so saturated with data and material that reality is entirely subjective. You know what rarely if ever get polled for zoomers? "Do you believe the future will make life more or less positive?" I think the only time I saw this being done is in Austria, where the vast majority of under 24s who answered "less positive" are supporters of right-wing populism. When you've grown up spending too much time online, lonely and extremely alienated, you will easily latch onto whatever populist ideology gives you a sense that the status quo can change. You have loving white supremacist mass shooters railing against corporations for fucks sake. I'm worried that the populist left will fail to captivate these people, it's the only way to stop the populist right. I have never had a positive future for life if things remain the same and when I stopped being apolitical at the end of my teens, I latched onto a populist egalitarianist identity. This is the polling where the top is "positive view of future life", middle is "negative view of future life" and bottom is "things will be the same". Almost 70% of under 24s who think negatively about future life support right-wing parties.

Southpaugh posted:who the gently caress started this gen z are gonna be nazis poo poo? Seriously the dumbest thing in this thread for a long time. Gen Z are the people alive right now who are going to be the most affected by climate change and its going to be up to them to put a loving bullet in the oil execs, while we look over the tops of our phones and tweet about it. right now they're currently the impressionable teens who get easily caught up in dumb stuff. The other generations already did that and already have plenty of nazis so its nothing for them to brag about, and its not like adults aren't vulnerable to religious mania, bigotry, fascism, fast-talking, conspiracies, all that nuttery...

Alan Smithee posted:If Cateline Jenner is any indication the trans are just raring to go fash if they’d have them Way back in 1941, Dorothy Thompson noted in her essay Who Goes Nazi? that outgroup exclusions, even explicitly exerminationist ones, don't really prevent people attracted to fascism from going fascist. quote:It is preposterous to think that they are divided by any racial characteristics. Germans may be more susceptible to Nazism than most people, but I doubt it. Jews are barred out, but it is an arbitrary ruling. I know lots of Jews who are born Nazis and many others who would heil Hitler tomorrow morning if given a chance. There are Jews who have repudiated their own ancestors in order to become “Honorary Aryans and Nazis”; there are full-blooded Jews who have enthusiastically entered Hitler’s secret service. Nazism has nothing to do with race and nationality. It appeals to a certain type of mind. I've seen nothing to suggest the equivalent isn't as true today as it was then.

we make a big deal about minorities going fash against their own self-interest but really if fascism did take over and start eliminating its enemies, even the straight white gamer boys would find a place on the list at some point, because fascism will never solve their problems and the only solution fascism has for problems is violence directed by the powerful against the powerless

Fascism is the solution for a society that can't tackle its own contradictions. It doesn't matter if the proponents of fascism may themselves be facing a firing squad, because all they really care about is making all the problems go away to satisfy their own aesthetic indulgences.

They needed there to always be an enemy population out beyond the frontier against whom they could wage periodic wars, both because they thought war was good and toughened up society, and also as a safety valve to release the tensions baked in to their inherently self-destructive social order.

Tbh I'd be more worried about the military taking over than 1930s style fash propagated by terminally online chuds, not only because of trump supportes but also centrist libs who are not only engaging in the rehabilitation of the natsec sector and neocons but who also have a sick fascination with having the "troops" restore "order". Also lay off that demographics is destiny poo poo, it's not useful politically because white supremacy can expanded to include hispanic whites to retain a majority and maybe even east asians.

I mean if you really think about it, it makes no sense why Gen Z would be "more nazi" anyway, millennials had an absolutely hosed up childhood. I remember terrible homophobia in middleschool, extreme religious bush fanaticism in elementary school, and the horrors of the internet throughout all those years. I actually think things are somewhat better now than they were on a cultural level. Bullfrog has issued a correction as of 17:34 on Aug 15, 2019 |
