That's what you get for voting for a death cult, Zoomers.

Yet another person with a lack of understanding of why Trump won.
He got about the same amount of votes as in the last election. It's the Democrats that couldn't get people to vote for them.
What I think were the main causes are not dropping Biden sooner, failure at acknowledging his shortcomings, failure at taking a stance on Palestine and attempting to appease the right instead of their core voters.
None of these have much to do with zoomers.
EDIT: Compared to 2020, Republicans gained 3.08 million votes, while Democrats lost 6.27 million.
- How many didn't turn out due to voters suppression and intimidation? How many didn't vote because they believed it wouldn't count? America is a flawed democracy
- Yep. Die hard dem supporters will blame anyone except the actual party who put on a total loser of a campaign. Noone is to blame for the dems losing except, shocker, the dems.
  
  Anyone who voted for someone that stupid deserves blame as well.

A higher percentage of voters aged 18-29 supported Harris than any other age group, but I guess don't let the facts get in the way of yelling at those damn kids like every other generation has done since forever
- Yeah Im Gen X and we voted this guy in twice because we all grew up with leaded fuels and paint.
  
  no, the boomers grew up with that
- More of that 18-24 demographic voted for Trump than before.

  That is also true and a real problem, but it would be more accurate to say that more of that 18-29 demographic who turned out to vote voted for Trump than before
  We estimate that 42% of young voters (+/- 1%), ages 18-29, cast ballots in the 2024 presidential election, a lower youth turnout than in 2020—when our early estimate put youth turnout above 50%—and approximately on par with the 2016 presidential election.
  We also estimate that youth voter turnout in battleground states may have been much higher: 50% on aggregate in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
  Young voters cast 14% of all ballots in the 2024 election, according to the National Election Pool exit poll conducted by Edison Research. While this number may be adjusted in the coming days, and other data sources may show different numbers, this 2024 youth share of the vote was also lower than in 2020 (17%) and 2016 (19%) based on the same data source.

  I would be interested to see how that 50% number for those battleground states compares to the percentage of 18-29 voters who turned out in those same states in 2020 and 2016, but I think the general story here isn't that zoomers are actually getting more conservative but that the Democratic party did a terrible job getting their young voters to turn out
  
  Im in a swing state and none of my friends voted for him, we all were for harris.
- The problem is the gigantic gender gap, far bigger than any other cohort (something like a 30 or 40 point spread between gen z men and women's voting). Many young men have a terminal case of Elon Musk and/or Andrew Tate brain.
  
  No, they have an incurable case of Elon Musk and/or Andrew Tate brain. If it was terminal, we might have been able to avoid this timeline.
- Was gonna say, in my experience gen z is largely left-leaning

Kind of a weird look to beat up on kids with shitty politics during an apocalypse, like sure there are plenty of toxic Zoomers but most of them have extremely amateur immitations of the toxic politics of whatever shithead rolemodel they look up to.
Be mad at the people these kids are idolizing, kids are impressionable that is the whole point of being a kid.

Fuck off divisive bullshit. Every generation ever has been attempted to be alienated like this, it is just more divide and conquer tactics, do not fall for it. It is still just owning class vs working class.
- I got it.
  They should listen to MORE toxic masculinity. Those three obviously represent the working class.
  
  Why are you convinced that all Gen Z listen to that kind of crap and nobody outside of Gen Z does? Generations have little to nothing to do with it.

Having not read the book, is The Stand at least a quick apocalypse?
- It took about a month to wipe out humanity, but was an absolutely horrible way to die.
  The nice thing is they've developed a vaccine for bird flu.
  Bad thing is we now have an anti-vax anti-science Health Secretary.
  The billionaire class and the administration will absolutely get it (so will Putin, Xi, Orban ect)
  Us? Absolutely not.
- The stand is an awesome book with a few dated tropes/language. With that in mind, I recommend it. Some of the characters live rent free in my head.
  Edit I'm big dumb and misread your comment
- It was not. And then the uncut edition came along.
  We are boned (unless you're Nadine).
  
  She got boned so good her hair turned white.

We all get fucked.

Which generations built the landscape in which the only 2 viable options where genocidal maniacs?
- Tad overwhelming that there are 5.

  Edit: oh 2017.
  Might be 6 then, unless one ended.
  
  I don’t think it such a big thing to ask that a presidential candidate supports none of these genocides?
