People don't understand Gen Z from a political perspective. They are a huge difference, and yeah, are probably going to be a major political turning point.
The stats DO NOT say that Gen Z is conservative. Nothing of the sort.
What they say is that Gen Z is as conservative at 18 as Millennial are at 30.
Basically, the way the statistics worked is each generation starts more Leftist and becomes more Right-wing as they age. The decay of Leftism in people takes a while but it can drop the numbers substantially. So, lets call Generation A 20% Leftist at 18, they will become 5% Leftist at 70.
However, with control over schooling, the next generation is far more Leftist than the previous one at 18, to the point that they are as Leftist at 70, as the previous one was at 18. So in our example, Generation B is 35% Leftist at 18, and is 20% Leftist at 70.
This is basically the pattern that we saw with the generations we've studied going back to the Silent Generation (which was one of the first to get Progressive public education from the Progressive Era).
I forget the specific numbers numbers, but let's call Millennial about 70% Leftist at 18. At 30, they are about 65% Leftist. We know that Leftism will decay in millennials so that when they are 70, they'll probably be something like 45% Leftist.
What is dramatically different about Gen Z is that they are (again, fake numbers) 65% Leftist at 18. Given all historical trends. This means that they will be more right-wing at 30, then Millienials are now. So at 30 they'll be something like 60% Leftist. When they turn 70, they'll be something like 40% or 35% Leftist. This is a major change in political alignment long term, and the Left has never changed that decay in over 100 years.
This is the first time since we've been studying generational political change with polling where the newest generation wasn't aggressively more Leftist than their predecessors. It's the only instance we have of the next generation being slightly less Leftist than the preceding one. What demographers would have predicted was that Gen Z likely should have been something like 90% Leftist if Millenials were 70%, and only became 70% Leftist when Gen Z turned 70. Nothing like that happened at all.
Anyways, don't you dare give up on Gen Z yet. They are the ones chanting "Fuck Joe Biden" in the stands at these college football games.
Gen Z+1 is probably the ones most in danger from being molested or castrated right now. But unfortunately, I'd bet money that's going to make Gen Z+1 far more anti-Left than Gen Z is. I suspect this trend will continue.
Liberals don't have heart, they have feelings - their own feelings, which they value over everything else in the world, including the lives of others. The policies they support always, inevitably, lead to massive suffering and destruction, but it makes them feel good to support them and criticism makes them feel bad so it's unacceptable.
