        The polling is pretty consistent about this. Gen Z leans strongly left in basically every dimension.

        Of course, I’ve grown up in the worst of the racist South so I probably got the bulk of the right-wing Gen Z.

        I think that would be it.

            Best part:

            In fact, according to the report, 60 percent of Millennials (age 24-39) support a “complete change of our economic system away from capitalism,” and 57 percent of Gen Z does as well: increases of 8 and 14 percentage points, respectively, from just last year.

            The statistics from the report are also remarkable in demonstrating not only a growing interest in socialism, which contains a mixture of conceptions, but a growing interest in Marxism, specifically.

            Thirty percent of Gen Z has a favorable view of Marxism, and 27 percent of Millennials.

            And even the right wingers are less right wing.

      because it's non-white. the white portion tracks with boomers on "conservativeness" (except more fascist and less neoconservative)
