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.

Lemmy right now is saltier than the earth of Carthage after the Roman's victory.
Iβm a young queer man(-ish) and after voting for Kamala have never felt more at fault for literally every problem the US has than whenever I open Lemmy. The blue party that Iβve been registered to and campaigned for since day one seems exceedingly good at making sure I know that, despite everything, somehow Iβm the problem.
Like fuck, I finally get why people suddenly get the urge to be βthe fucking problemβ after being told they are the problem for so long.
lots of people are very uneasy right now, don't do anything you'll regret, friend.
'the problem is young men' is such a half baked 'analysis', kids have always been edgy bastards, I don't think that will ever change, and the revolting youth have always been to blame.
If the dems are making you feel that way, I don't know why you'd campaign for them. Better organising can be done in your Union.
Bold of you to assume unions will still be a thing in America in the near future.
Could you clarify what you mean by union?
Sure.
Lemmy, like Reddit, ain't never been nice, and now it's in total meltdown. So basically, double the 'ain't nice'
Well you see, many of us don't care for fascism or dictatorships and we aren't looking forward to Trump adding two additional genocides- those of queer and brown people in the U.S.- to the world.
You may feel differently, I don't know.
And that motivates branding Gen Z males as 'Hitler Youth'?!
Get out of here, lmao.
I responded to this comment:
I did not respond to a comment about Gen-Z males and Hitler Youth.
I respond to what people write, not what they expect me to read from their mind.
And I'm talking about the post, you know, the post in which this comment section is linked...
As I already said:
And oddly, you decided to criticize me over this, but not these people who also didn't read your mind-
And then this person didn't read your mind and also responded to your comment and not the post and not only did you not criticize them, you responded to them as if that was a valid response.
I don't notice them saying anything about Gen-Z males and Hitler youth at all.
So you are going to rectify this situation and criticize all of them for doing the same thing I did, right?
I mean you're not a troll, are you?
Now, why the hell would I care why people waste time responding to a comment they don't even understand!?
I guess that answers my question. I will report your posts as trolling from now on.
Well, I guess you do that and waste other peopels time... Since on here you cannot just ban your problems away; you have to report them.
Not a good look for your side, not a good look.
If there ever will be a true left-populist candidate, they can call your side "evil-for-evil-sake" and "ill intentioned".
And what side is that?
Are you surprised? America just voted away all its freedoms and democracy
