     I've also seen other polls attributing a conservative bent to Gen Z. I don't expect the divide to be this stark, but the evidence suggests that they are going to be more right-wing than the Millennials.

If this is the case it could be to do with the way they consume the news. Millennials would have been the last generation to grow up with traditional media outlets still providing them with the bulk of their news information. I imagine that can make a difference, I don't know if you've seen the below post



     While I have expressed similar ideas in the past, I will be a little self-critical and point out that that post reminds me a lot of those accounts of "woke eight-year olds".

Whites, DEFINITELY. Rural whites, 100%. Everybody else, probably not.

Pretty much what I think. It's not a coincidence  to see young white teens nowadays with this haircut:



Also people with large followings like PewDiePie don't just put Nazi and antisemetic undertones into their videos for no reason. He just happens to know his audience very, very well and is tapping into those sentiments for views.

     If the goal were to appeal to the rising tide of National Socialism among Generation Z, mocking Nazis would be a lousy way to go about it. They're not the kind of folks who can handle being the butt of a joke.

I think the neo Nazi sites actually celebrated PewDiePie when they realized what he had been doing. To them they don't care if he's joking around or not, he's "redpilling future generations" in their eyes.

     Yeah, and these people are delusional. I don't particularly care what they think about him, or anyone else for that matter.
