This is not my personal opinion, I know Gen Z men who voted for Harris. But the voter demographics really speak for themselves, and maybe now people will look at the radicalization of young men as a serious (but solvable) issue.

in the 90s you attacked whatever was around cause you were a piece of shit, now you got the internet so pieces of shit worldwide can band together and hate a specific cause.
We had the internet in the 90s. It just wasn't in every 12-year-old's pocket all day, and the nefarious smoky room types were too old to understand how it worked, let alone carry our mass manipulation campaigns with it as the medium.
The thing with Gen X teenage nihilism was that the only cardinal sin was actually having a strong opinion. There wasn't much room to hate on anything, because actually hating something showed that you cared too much, and that wasn't what we were about.
Gen Z seems to be much more willing to embrace negative emotions and acknowledge that they care enough to hate. Whether that's a better or a worse thing, I'm not sure.
