The US needs either a socialist party or to reform the democratic party into one.

People in Democrat cities are getting arrested for protesting against the Gaza genocide. Neither party welcomes them or their vote for that matter.

Honestly, it’s time for Democrats to reinvent themselves. Cringe centrist boomers are dying and the youth is more leftist than ever. I think Trump winning this round and giving the Dems a taste of failure would be a good thing.

Yeah at a time when this poll shows younger people are leaning more moderate/right than usual, let's move the democratic party further to the left what could possibly go wrong

Bro to literally turn ur back on a President who is trying to help cancel your student debt? America is really full of dummies who vote against their own interests. So pathetic.

I won’t lie, the economy in my country has shifted my views drastically these past few years. Left wing politics isn’t working anymore. It’s just a bunch of old people who are so out of touch with reality that they think environmental issues are more important than people literally dying of poverty in the streets of their own country rn.

Youth are not more leftist than ever. Youth are literally moving more right each passing day 💀

Wildly inaccurate. Young people aren’t voting for Trump.

Pickmeism and tokenism are becoming more popular among young people. Also the faith in liberal arts education and even higher education itself is dropping across the entire country. It's really sad.

I've been warning about this for a long time. People say it openly nowadays. It's like they're not afraid/embarassed like it used to be back in the day.

I think cancel culture is dead  No one is afraid of being canceled anymore (not saying it's a good or bad thing, just an observation)

Yeah that's what surprised me most, and the ones who were still embarrassed to say, I don't know which answer it could be these days

Welp to be fair, students didn't get brutalized by cops en masse on campuses under Trump.

But that’s not even what these poll shows lolol. This poll says that the younger half of gen Z is trending more leftward, while the older half is more liberal/moderate.

Not really sure a TikTok from a campus in Texas is exactly the best bellwether for the youth of the US lmao

But what major campus protests happened under Trump? And what current campus protests have been squashed by Biden specifically sending in the National Guard like Nixon did at Kent State vs just having to deal with local law enforcement?

This is a bit like saying no one died of COVID under Obama 😂

a declining share of younger people identifying as liberal/leftist. In this poll, only 32% identified as liberal/left. The rest identified as moderate or conservative

Unrelated because obviously this is horrible new.. but how the **** is this happening?? A few years ago it was going the opposite direction and everything seemed to be finally going in the right direction.. now it's flipped. Is it the podcasters and influencers? Propaganda working? People losing trust in officials after covid? I'm so confused
