Young people tend towards the left because they have the youthful desire to change the world for the better. People become more conservative as they age.
"Better" doesn't inherently mean leftism, in fact it is quite the opposite. Only years of intense indoctrination could convince people that their natural instincts and basic pattern recognition are bad. The young are also desperately vying for social status and have been conditioned that best way to achieve that is by being grotesque. Uncle Ted addresses the co-opting of the impulse to rebel better than I can.
Leftist talking points are easy to fall into
And so on. It's easy.
They are also easily disproven by using one's eyes. Leftist ideas can only be sustained in a large chunk of the population by making observable reality socially unacceptable.
Teens are impulsive, I guess.
That takes life experience. It's easy to fool teens.
Isn't the over-socialization he talks about largely to blame? And isn't that an inevitability in cities, with technology, and of course more and more society managed and regulated? I guess that's what you're saying with the social status / conditioning. I wonder if it wasn't universities would it naturally be some other institution brainwashing them.
Absolutely, that's a basic premise of Deleuzian territorialization. There's nothing inherently preventing them from being indoctrinated into nationalism or tradcath or christnat. It would be easier actually because that doesn't require pretending men can be women or drug addled criminals aren't dangerous.
