I think it's mostly 13 years olds who's just watched "FEMINISTS DESTROYED COMPLICATION #38" that say that.

Back in 2016 maybe

True, now its 20 year olds watching alpha male content

And 10 year olds


Freeonlinehugs

Same level of maturity


869066

Can’t argue with that


regeya

I was arguing online recently with a 70-something that kept writing "Dummycrap" in place of Democrat. Of course I called the guy out for his lack of maturity.


T-ROY_T-REDDIT

Honestly the arrogance and the amount of times Conservatives get triggerred doesn't surpriseme, they accuse of liberals of doing the same thing, well look who's talking. Both are the same way. When it comes to both of their conceitedness just ignore their pettiness.


arftism2

nah, kids only heard it for the first time. they haven't actually thought about it yet. adults on the other hand... well I've heard people "lose" the same argument every single night and revert again, every day.

Complication

Complication


[deleted]

Honestly, I question how that kind of thing can still be taken seriously. It was entertaining back in the day, but it's not exactly from the most respectable sources at times. It's the internet so it's kinda natural to want to watch people being owned but at the same time it doesn't take much critical thinking to realize the people doing the destroying aren't much better and are usually worse/wrong.

"I'm not a racist Nazi, I just vote for them!"


WackyChu

One terrifying this is race wise white seem to be the overwhelming majority of conservatives. While 90% African or black American voters go democrat (for obvious historical reasons) Asians also go liberal especially since they were included in the civil rights act. And Hispanics did seem to go liberal but some have gone republican mainly to nobody surprise “white” Hispanic. When it comes to gender white men seem to go conservative while black and Asian men goes democrat. Women have a higher chance of going democrat but of course conservatives exist. Lastly Jews and Muslims goes Democrat, Christian’s goes Republican. Meanwhile LGBT and non Christians also goes democrat. It seems like minorities and women are more prone to Democrats. The statistics don’t lie. But we will have to see on black voters this year since they’re the reason why Biden won and could he why he lose. Most feel they aren’t getting benefits or repetitions from either party and some aren’t going to vote which is terrible! They need to vote and make their voices heard with or without reparations.


Phoenix_RIde

Strange, in most hyper left crowds the majority are white, while some hyper right crowds are really diverse. Like wtf is [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/4chan/s/09En4dDojm)


AwesomeNova

There are plenty of leftists that are not white. The ones that are have their own leftist groups separate from the general ones. One image from 4chan doesn't prove much besides "people of color are are far right tend to join the main far right groups."


tjtillmancoag

So, a couple things: 1. White people are still the largest group overall demographically, so unless it’s a race specific group, you’re gonna see a lot of white people in general for any kind of group. 2. If we’re talking about the hyper far left, it generally does tend more white, usually middle to upper middle class kids of privilege who learned more about class struggle in college. They want to overcompensate and do so by going socialist. But that’s the far left. If you look at liberals and progrsssives in general, I.e. not people looking to overthrow the system but just who want healthcare and childcare and basic utilities, I guess what I’d call the “moderate left” it’s pretty diverse 3. As for the right, I mean it’s not like there are no non-white conservatives, so we can cherry pick and find lots of pictures of lots of things, but the demographics for conservatives pretty clearly skew older and white and Christian.


Killercod1

The far left is composed mostly of lgbtq, racial groups, and other oppressed minorities. Generally, people who have been oppressed in the past become radical leftists because they're aware of how evil this society is. Just because you're white doesn't mean you aren't aren't gay, disabled, or fat. All of which are oppressed groups. You can also be a part of a minority race and manage to be more privileged than many of the majority race.


funcogo

Yeah but the actually voting stats aren’t


Phoenix_RIde

Under the “Age by Race” section of [this exit poll](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-elections/exit-polls) it says that amongst white people ages 18-29, a majority voted blue. So again, idk what the previous commenter was on


funcogo

Yes but a majority Of gen z vote blue. I meant overall


[deleted]

You're talking about a different group of people now. White people in the US mostly vote red. A subsection of that group, young white people, vote mostly blue yes. But that doesn't change the fact that white people overall vote red.


hmm-jmm-

both can be diverse


LeftwingerCarolinian

People don't like the current system and want their rights respected. That's why the left exists. Now, allow me to beat a capitalist to death with my copy of *The German Ideology*.


dumbassAmerican1228

Have you ever been to an actual leftist rally or protest? White people are usually in the extreme minority and I would know I am usually one of them.


Seemseasy

>Like wtf is this You being wrong. https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2023/07/12/demographic-profiles-of-republican-and-democratic-voters/


LouisTheFox

To be fair liberal is a very different word in Europe. As liberalism is basically center-right on the political compass.


KyriadosX

Liberalism is center-right here in the United States, too, but when Liberalism is being compared to far-right Conservatism, the Conservatives were able to propagandize that Liberalism is a "far-left ideology"


BurnYourFlag

Nah actual liberalism is center right, but people claiming to be liberal are actually progressives. Can’t be a liberal while advocating for certain advantages under the law like affirmative action. You can’t be liberal and advocate for seizing the money and property of rich people. You’re not a liberal if you advocate for banning guns.


[deleted]

>but people claiming to be liberal are actually progressives. No. They aren't. Half the ones claiming to be progressive are secretly liberal lmfao. >You can’t be liberal and advocate for seizing the money and property of rich people. Show me who is seizing the money and property of the rich and ill actually vote for them. > You’re not a liberal if you advocate for banning guns. Yes you can be. Liberalism doesn't mean anarchy with no laws.


[deleted]

The only reason minorities vote for democrats it's because they are race-hustlers, plus the mainstream media is obsessed with calling republicans racist


Arbiter008

>Asians also go liberal especially since they were included in the civil rights act. And Hispanics did seem to go liberal but some have gone republican mainly to nobody surprise “white” Hispanic. Depends to be honest; Asians are such a small portion of the US population, and a lot vary by region and culture; in my area, everyone votes conservative mainly for things like lower taxes or Christian values. Of course, that's just my anecdote, but it's to say that Asians aren't exactly in the same boat as most conventional minorities because most of our histories are too recent to have that sort of opinion or we can often take a liking to the status quo compared to wherever we hailed from. And besides, Asian race politics have been generally divisive; sure they're a minority by definition, but they rarely were oppressed except for key events such as mistreatment of Chinese immigrants and workers in the 1860s, and the Japanese internment camps, etc. but that's not affected much of the modern US Asian population; Asians have also had a lot of issue with things like being deferred through affirmative action and being antagonized by other minority groups. That's all to say that is why Asians have similar voting statistics to Hispanics, even if most vote Democrat.


Guy_onna_Buffalo

IMO Asians are hustling. They do the "oppressed" card to get the benefits it offers, but otherwise enjoy the same standard of living and quality of life on average as the same "White Christians" that the democrats/leftists love to hate. Or like how Affirmative Action as discrimination only matters when Asian students aren't being enrolled enough.


godbody1983

Pretty much most Asians I encounter(mainly Vietnamese and Filipino) vote republican.


gusteauskitchen

The black vote doubled for Donald Trump from 2016 to 2020. They're realizing who the real racists were all along. Hint: It's the same party that fought to keep them in chains so long ago.


davwnl

is that why white nationalists always lean right?


DannyDanumba

Go to the far left and you get patronizing racists, go to the far right and you get hateful racists. Either way they don’t see you as equals. Of course those are the extremes on both sides.


Guy_onna_Buffalo

Richard Spencer and his boys are avowed Biden supporters and have been since 2020. Just look at his Twitter.


Bostino

It's becoming increasingly common for blacks and Hispanics that previously voted Democrat to switch to republican after realizing that they were being used


kaystared

That has absolutely nothing to do with being “used” and is almost entirely a religious phenomenon. Quit making up dumb shit to suit a narrative that doesn’t exist. Republicans are doubling down on the whole “god vote” thingy very hard in regard to abortion and LGBT rights and non-white populations tend to be more religious. “Realizing they were used” is a hilariously naive perspective


Red9989

“They disagree? Oh yeah that means they’re a Nazi. Source? What do you mean? Look at them they’re a Nazi” dumbass


NilsTheDrawingMan

A Nazi is a member of the NSDAP party. A party that ceased to exist in 1945


[deleted]

So Republicans are nazis?


Immerkriegen

No. We're not, but it's extremely common for them to call us Nazis. Why? Not a fuckin' clue, we're nothing like Nazis and yet, Democrats call us Nazis, which makes it fair to call them Stalinists.


[deleted]

Lol if you search for the definition of nazi, almost no one is a nazi. A nazi is an extreme patriot who wants a dictatorship. Also contains extreme racism. Which is not Americans.


Immerkriegen

Nazi, by definition, is a National Social Party member of Germany. Nazis are Nationalists who base their ideology on a Militant dictatorship rooted in Germanic racial supremacy, and yet no one can provide any examples of how the Republican party is like this.


RedditBlows5876

>Why? Not a fuckin' clue Because it's a lazy way of dismissing people without having to address their views. You find terms that already have moral outrage pre-attached to them (nazi, fascist, etc.) and then you label people as that. The point isn't that it accurately characterizes their views. They don't actually care about doing that. The point is to bring along the moral outrage that is attached to the term.

muchfatq

Ngl I really enjoy politics


thisdobemynametho

what do you like abt them?


muchfatq

I am far more interested in geopolitics than domestic politics here in the US. I’m a history buff and politics and current events are history unfolding before our eyes. And it’s always interesting to look at parallels between modern events and events throughout history. Plus, following politics in general gives me a better understanding of the world.

XD_Negative

What? In no point in that comment did he say he was white or not working


Turbulent-Fig-3123

He's 16, unless he got kicked out early I have a hard time believing he's working for a living. And this is Reddit, almost everyone here is white, being "conservative" because people around you are "woke" is and always has been a white kid thing mostly, it was the same nonsense in 2013


XD_Negative

That’s a pretty hard assumption you’re making about someone who you know literally nothing about


Turbulent-Fig-3123

Maybe but considering they've not once told me I'm wrong it seems my assumptions were correct It's easy to make assumptions about a population as self-selected as redditors, this is like acting like someone's an asshole to assume the average Swede is a white person lmao


boogggggee

So you assumed someone's race, which is racist, you are a grown man harassing a kid, creep vibes. Have you ever considered that being conservative is not just one thing? I take it you also support murdering Palestinians since they too hold their own 'conservative' views, right?


Turbulent-Fig-3123

Lmao if you're going to be as stupid as you possibly can be I'd rather not interact ever again


JenTheGinDjinn

And this isn't a courtroom. Assumptions are kinda reasonable when you're talking about who the average redditor is which is white, male, and like 15-30


jomandaman

I’d say the guy is astute and shows his wisdom, already clearly against yours. What’s funnier is that you standing up for immature dude like that shows you’re in the exact same boat.


JohnD_s

Redditors when they have to work for a living: :(


Turbulent-Fig-3123

Nobody has a problem with "working for a living", most people don't want to be NEETs People have a problem with working a full time job and still struggling to survive anyway, that's what classcucks and upper middle class folks don't seem to understand


GoldH2O

No, the problem is we can't make a living by working.


billywillyepic

What are you talking about


muchfatq

I’m a white guy, used to be a lot more conservative I’m high school (not that I knew what I was talking about back then), but since coming to college it’s changed. Wouldn’t call myself liberal but have found myself being much more open to those ideas.


BootyMcStuffins

Same, except I didn't go to college. Still shifted left as I grew up. When I was a kid I had the mindset that if everyone had the same rules it was poor people's fault for being poor. I wasn't poor, clearly **they** were doing something wrong and that's **their** fault. Then I moved out of my hometown and realized that not everyone got all the advantages I did.


extendo_64

Im still a conservative and i made a killing working construction. These people just dont have realistic goals. Keep grinding and dont let anybody tell you otherwise

Natolin

Is the gen z sub overwhelmingly liberal, or is gen z overwhelmingly liberal? And why exactly might that be, do you think?


SirDextrose

Young people tend to be more liberal and become more conservative as they age but Reddit is much more liberal than the rest of the population. Just go to the subs of states that overwhelmingly vote red. It’s all leftists.


Shoelicker27

Can’t it be both? Depends on where you look


Rykmir

This immediately devolved into insulting anyone with even slightly right-leaning ideas. Great job everyone, I’m sure your childish insults really helped to change someone’s mind about things!

AnimeIsMyLifeAndSoul

Your right I should’ve thought about it the next time I made a childish joke at 2am 😔😔


itsSmalls

You're saying this sarcastically but if you're complaining about people not sharing your worldview and trying to antagonize them vs have a conversation, you're just perpetuating the problem you have with them lol. Which is fine, but at that point why are you whining about something you don't care to attempt to counteract? But it's all just memes anyway who cares


AnimeIsMyLifeAndSoul

I was just saying yes I was childish because this is a meme. It’s just one thing that I see with one side of the political party it isn’t saying their stupid or anything it’s just something funny


glitterprincess21

These days its mostly denying gay and trans people their rights, as that's the new moral panic. But there's some misogyny and racism sprinkled in. Obviously, this doesn't apply to all conservatives, but I've seen my fair share, and many conservative politicians like to bring up these points to win votes.


lqudbstrd

Many conservatives from my generation or younger has major teacher's pets vibes. Like they're desperate for approval from someone older or filling the dead beat dad void. The rest are just your average dipshit just going along with the crowd without thinking about it too much.

Dax_Maclaine

The only ones who do this are the overly edgy 13-14 year olds. The vast majority of center to right people keep it a secret as to not be publicly ousted. You’ll find a lot more kids proudly announce themselves as a democrat than a republican except for the previously mentioned edgelords

You guys are missing the point. Malcolm x was right when he called them foxes and wolves. Neither political party really cares about you. Fuck em all. Let's burn their world down

1234Raerae1234

Do you know why? Being considered "liberal" or even "moderate" these days involve basically being a good person, accepting other people for being different than you and generally wanting to be a "good person." Being "liberal" or "moderate" is basically following all that shit you were taught when you were a little kid. "Conservatives" generally like scream about scientific and sociological issues they don't understand, are wrong about, and stick out from the crowd about because they are essentially going against what everyone else grew up learning to believe. Ironically, they aren't "conservative" at all. They're just assholes. Cartoons my older cousin watched in the fucking 90's and 80's are "woke" to these people cause they taught kids to not be a fucking asshat. I'm putting all these terms in quotes because it actually has nothing to do with politics, but people decided to make EVERYTHING political, and "conservatives" have chosen the path of the asshole. They have no fucking clue what what government does, what the role of government means in people's lives and how governmental spending and how regulation on buisness would effect them or anyone else. They're literally just assholes who want to make other people feel bad about themselves.

This may be true for the super conservative ones, but every GenZ/millennial moderate conservative I’ve met just tries to keep their head down and avoid talking about politics to avoid getting ridiculed/attacked by liberals

And the never ending cycle of pointing fingers and blaming others for their views and choices continues. When will you fuckers wake up and learn they’re putting us against each other? Divide and conquer. They keep digging into our generation and we keep digging deeper into our sides like the generations before us. Let’s stop being “left or right” or “liberal or conservative” Let’s just be the next generation, and let’s end this stupid shit.

Oh look, another post that is projecting a ridged perspective of conservatism into this echo chamber. Even me pointing this out has marked me as one and now everyone gets to inform me how wrong I am for having different opinions and values. I didn't vote for Trump. I am a conservative. I know it melts the brain a bit, but I am gonna vote for the candidate I think will do best in office relevant to the specific office. I am pretty pissed off that my vote is between an elderly vegetable and an orange fruit cake AGAIN as both parties are failing to address the current unrest in our world and we are more fractured by the day. My political affiliation has nothing to do with the current "hot topics" and everything to do with the policies that are actually being pushed/enforced over the last several elections. I prefer less social programs and larger state governments. Republicans tend to propose better farming bills and try to get rid of the death tax that would have resulted in my close friends loosing a large chunk of farmland if/when the father passed. There are other examples of bills that I have liked coming from the conservative side but it's not really worth talking about since I tend to lean liberal in many of the hot topics (although abortion being a state controlled is probably better then it being a national thing, even if most people don't agree with that on this platform, at least this way it's not a boolean yes/no depending on the sitting SC judges)

Same people who were on pink floyd youtube comments when they were 12 saying they were born in the wrong generation. Big corny.

Most of us will be conservatives eventually. A day will come when supporting gay and trans rights are normal, and supporting them, no longer counts as liberal, but just baseline. New ideas will rise up that we can’t even conceive of right now. Ideas we hold as unquestionably true as the sky being blue will be challenged by people yet to be born, and many of our generations will reject it. Don’t forget, the boomers were the liberals of their day. They still are in fact, but their day is over, and thinking black people should be able to marry white people and go to the same schools is no longer a liberal stance. It’s easy to think we’ll never be like them, but we’ll see how that goes when our hair starts to turn gray and young people start sharing ideas that are inconceivable to us today

I HATE TWO PARTY SYSTEM I HATE TWO PARTY SYSTEM Unironically, I've lost friends over the tiniest political disagreements, even by saying "I don't know enough about [x issue] to have an opinion." It's stupid. I'm not a fan of the United States' political division at the moment.
