    I’m gonna take a wild guess and assume this graph was created by a GenZ’er as they are the only people in the world who don’t consider GenZ’ers cringe.

    Cringe is teenagers and 20 somethings hero worshipping Joe Rogan and supporting right wing christian nationalists. Lamest fucking generation around. Even boomers had a hippie phase before becoming old and bitter. Gen Z just skipped that and went straight to the conformist bootlicker phase.

    Generational warfare is pretty cringe. The chart isn’t even right, too. X was the highest percentage voting for trump generationally. I’m ashamed of my brethren.

      Yeah, took me a while to realise generational stereotypes etc. were more inflammatory culture war, as much as it often seems ‘in good spirits’.

      Yup as soon as I saw gen Z based I knew. 5-10 years ago this would have been the opposite, it’s always the generation of new adults that thinks they’re hip and cool while looking down on the “kids”. When I was younger we (millennials) all thought we were the coolest and made fun of gen Z for being cringe. Now gen Z thinks they’re cool but soon enough they’ll be old and lame too and gen Alpha will have the spotlight.

      Just wait till a kid hits you with “sir” for the first time and then looks at you weird when you insist you’re not that old.

    Gen Z is the most cringe since the boomers. Your shit is breaking down into farts.

      "In her recollection, her interest in Trump was prompted by his positions on trade. However, looking back six years later she confessed, “I’m going to forget all the facts.” She tried to recall: “I did my research back then into what was happening with Paris Trade Accord [a reference to the climate agreement that the Obama administration had entered into] and things … I didn’t like it, and Trump was against it. I said, ‘Ok, great.’”

      This is roughly consistent with Bonier’s analysis of Gen X voters, which has found that they are very concerned about the economy, somewhat concerned about retirement (although nowhere near as much as Baby Boomers) and not terribly concerned about issues like the environment or guns."

      " In her first term, she’s sponsored legislation to ban vaccine mandates, to prohibit libraries from making obscene materials available to minors and to nullify federal enforcement of gun control laws in the state."

        Imagine spending most of your adult life with an affected world-weary detachment from society and beliving it makes you anything but a insufferable juvenile shithead.
