Also, literally who cares. This isn't politics. Zoomers and millenials are very left-wing and that hasn't changer significantly in recent years. This isn't happening at scales that are shifting the political landscape. Idk why there is an obsession with this shit.

    Doomers will latch onto this and say it's a sign of the world going to shit while ignoring that young men were listening to Rush Limbaugh in the 90's when things were at their peak for 1st world countries. You had many more in the 20th century doing the same thing.

    The thing is that leftism in many developed countries is a little more inclusive. From my experience with leftists in Central America, sexism and transphobia is still a recurring issue and something liberals love to use against the left. At the same time, we're a lot more open with sex than sexually repressed countries like the US. I feel like that's another reason why they cling to people like Andrew Tate so hard.

        I think you're right generally, but I have a 18-35 demographic friend who used to listen to rush. Now he's a ticket-buying Jordan Peterson head. Just an anecdote

        I live in bumfuck nowhere, if my classmates weren't browsing /pol/ or stormfront, they would be listening to Rush Limbaugh.

        Shit sucks.

        Young adults in rural areas were and I remember because they wouldn't shut up about how he spoke "the truth." Glenn Beck was another one too.
