Yet another article laundering far-right into "economic anxiety." The author never considers whether men support Trump because they like his policies on immigration or queer people. She just lets them cast their preferences in the most sympathetic light possible. www.nytimes.com/2024/08/24/u...
Men under 30 are much more likely to support Donald Trump than women their age. It’s a far bigger gender gap than in older generations.
Endless sympathy for fascism
Do you suppose that if and when Trump loses in November, the 9-year avalanche of stories that only cast Trump supporters in the most sympathetic and "American" of ways will finally come to an end?
Let's be real, this is talking about WHITE Gen Z men. And the particularly subset that emulate this guy. Hey dudes, maybe you should stop blaming women for not wanting to sleep with your mediocre, poser selves.
ALT: a man with long hair and a beard is making a funny face and saying okay .
whoops! they accidentally featured a white cis boy again
The cognitive dissonance is fucking wild. "We just want to be able to afford homes and have families" But also "the real issue is boys aren't taught how to be fathers" Sorry but no amount of teaching boys to be fathers will get them out from under poverty
Am I going crazy or are Gen Z men more liberal than Gen X etc., they’re just not as liberal as Gen Z women? So this framing of them being “notably” conservative has always felt odd to me. I’ve also seen reporting that they’re less engaged, so defining them is less salient right now and can change
My kids are in the GenZ demographic, and I look around at the the differences between the boys and the girls, and in many cases, the girls are just so much more interesting and outgoing and engaging. We’re gonna look back and realize that Fortnite and Minecraft did a number on our boys, I think.
Not sure why reporters think these guys are going to tell them the truth. Having Trumper family members (now dead to me), I know that in public they talk about freedom, "protecting" babies, and the economy. At home the masks come off and it's about making a white Christian nation.
“and see former President Donald J. Trump as a champion of traditional manhood.” I’m pretty confident she has almost no material evidence to back up this statement.
Don't forget right-wing misogyny!
