I hate to say this but fucking good. Throwing random people in Gitmo wasn’t enough to piss the people off to do anything, because the only thing that would be enough is when they fuck with everyone’s money.
I hate the “fuck you I got mine” attitude so fucking much.
My tinfoil hat theory is that a large part of it is incels. All the articles that young people are having way less sex than previous generations, etc. Young men are frustrated and instead of doing something productive about it, they start hating women. And hating women is a quick slide to the right side of the political aisle.
If you’ve ever visited the now-banned incel subreddit, it’s a whole bunch of really frustrated young men who blame everyone else for not getting any.
There’s a decent correlation there. There was an article or study out out recently that demonstrated that Republican narratives and pundits overwhelmingly dominate the podcast/streaming space by like a 5:1 ratio, and that a lot of people (for some reason, disproportionately men) who are exposed to podcasts and streaming tend to drift right as they’re exposed to these pundits and narratives.
I seriously doubt this will be enough. A whole lot of qons were very grrrr, mad when Biden talked about loan forgiveness for the same reasons, really (“fuck you I got mine”) and many qons never went to school.
The average person just needs to fall under a certain level of comfortability for all hell to break loose.
Unlike Hitler, this guy cant ‘fix’ the economy by going to war because any war big enough to bolster our already over bloated military budget would immediately end in MAD.
This isn’t a reason to act like its all gonna be okay, but I’d like to think we have a better shot than 1930’s Germany…

Millennials were already against Trump. They were and remain the most liberal generation alive
It kills me that we lost Gen Z to fucking streamers.
Not all of us. Really mostly the men. Talking to a genz woman vs man is like two completely different groups.
This isn’t the first time I’ve heard that. I wonder why things have played out this way.

idk about that. Most people still don’t watch streamers

You have more hope than I. I seriously do not think Americans will ever do anything. Too many people have been indoctrinated into obedience.
Sad that it comes to this and people’s social security + other social safety nets having to be cut for them to wake the fuck up.
