Four-times-indicted former president Donald Trump has been successfully selling white Christian nostalgia, racism and xenophobia to his base. However, the Public Religion Research Institute’s massive poll of 6,616 participants suggests that what works with his base might pose an insurmountable problem with Gen Z teens and Gen Z adults (who are younger than 25).
Demographically, this cohort of voters bears little resemblance to Trump’s older, whiter, more religious followers. “In addition to being the most racially and ethnically diverse generation in our nation’s history, Gen Z adults also identify as LGBTQ at much higher rates than older Americans,” the PRRI poll found. “Like millennials, Gen Zers are also less likely than older generations to affiliate with an established religion.”
Those characteristics suggest Gen Z will favor a progressive message that incorporates diversity and opposes government imposition of religious views. Indeed, “Gen Z adults (21%) are less likely than all generational groups except millennials (21%) to identify as Republican.” Though 36 percent of Gen Z adults identify as Democrats, their teenage counterparts are more likely to be independents (51 percent) than older generations.
look outside, it might be hard, mr. wannabe-FOSS reddit addict, but nature has it’s ways of conveying truth to you, and you need to actively seek it, no amount of my words can truly teach you until you witness
Okay, I looked outside. There’s trees, snow, and a mountain. Do you have any proof that whatever cult you’re a member of has grown by 400% since 1990?
you need to immerse yourself within the world to know how it operates, and it’s not possible to put numbers to truth, to audit such a thing is useless and impractical when we can all focus on actually spreading the truth rather than asking who knows it
You put a number on it. You said a 400% increase since 1990. That’s a very specific claim.
You didn’t make it up, did you?
i said ~400% as it was an estimate based on the maximum perceivable related information, your entire world view is made up considering it does not align with natural law :)
No, I made a specific bet that your cult’s attendance collapsed by 40% and you countered with a very specific claim that it in fact had quadrupled. You’ve already accepted that this is something that can be counted.
So all this back-pedalling now just makes me assume you are a lying bser. I mean, I did previously but now I know it, I suppose.
estimation is not the same as providing an exact number, i thought someone who lied about having moral truth would know this? do you now know that ~ means “estimated”? you truly do need to clear your mind and look at the world logically for once, you’ll realise things that will change you for the better
