It might be something to do with unchecked immigration, not being able to afford property, or the EUs shameful support of a genocide.
Gen Z needs a Thanos snap
Perhaps if they participated instead of watching from the side lines they wouldn’t lose faith
There are 3-4 countries pouring billions into a (hybrid) war against democracy… considering this it is a miracle that we are still hanging on.
If recent events have taught us anything it’s that taking the public’s temperature at any given point in time says nothing about how they’ll vote.
Everyone wants a strongman until the strongman has his boot on *their* neck.
It wouldn’t be because most politicians are taking donations to further the interests of wealthy individuals or companies, and are generally inaccessible or not interested in furthering the values or views of their constituents? Career politicians are just corrupt corporate dogs.
More propagamda on TikTok and other shit antisocial media
Enjoy the polls as they last. The oligarchy won’t allow them much longer.
Too busy following American politics and not their own through tiktok will cause that.
That being said, when I was a kid I also didn’t have very smart ideas about democracy.
Our parents said democracy is strong and can defend itself. But then it can’t and they are barely even trying.
Seems to be a common thread of low turn our and a surprise low turn out is someone you very much don’t want.
They need to move away from this belief that if you vote for a politician/party that you are morally responsible for every single policy. Oddly not voting isn’t seen as a moral issue. Young people seem to take an inaction approach to the trolley problem.
It’s a simple problem of “things haven’t gotten better in my lifetime, I want change”.
It’s not that democracy doesn’t work, it’s that capitalism erodes the functionality of democracy.
If you’re getting all and the same no matter who’s elected you lose faith in elections.
The rich bought all the politicians so they became different flavours of the same shit.
Next on the menu: strongmen.
>Women in Germany, France and Italy identified as progressive in higher numbers than four years ago, while young men in Poland and Greece have grown more conservative in the same period.
This is happening all over the developed world. For the first time in generations, Gen Z men are more conservative than their predecessors. This trend is likely to continue into Gen Alpha and beyond.
