The Generation Z vote (aka new voters)

[BoAtlantis]

It's a myth that young people are inherently more liberal.
Wisconsin 18-24 year olds voted 47-43 for Trump if exit poll is to be believed.
By contrary, whites in TX, GA are getting more democratic.

Young people have tendency to rebel against parents thoughts. Hispanic and black youngsters won't go overwhelmingly Democratic forever. And likewise, older people won't be the most conservative one forever.
It always changes and one part of the reasons is that people always want to hit a reset button after certain ideology is in the throne long enough.

Generation Z is insanely liberal but that's because the goal posts of what makes somebody a liberal have changed

Old boomers think that gay marriage and universal health care are liberal issues while Generation Z thinks both are normal and okay. For Generation Z, truly liberal issues are weather or not there are things such as gender or weather or all drugs should be liberal.

Anyone who thinks Generation Z is conservative is too often comparing it to today's conservatives. Hell...by the time Generation Z is all grown up, they'll be arguing about weather or not there are 80 genders not about Roe Vs Wade

What remains to be seen are trades, immigration, abortion, death penalty and gun control.

I would not be surprised if Gen Z opposes trades and wants to restrict even legal immigration more than previous generations do. It's not just a matter of expanding the goal post. In the Philippines, younger people are more likely to support drug war.

As for gender identity, if it reaches the point of oversaturation, there will also be a war on transgender people as well at some point.

Nothing is permanent.

I also find it surprising that Gen Z attends church at a higher rate.

It's really not that surprising. Minorities are usually more religious than whites, and the youngest generation is still more likely to attend church at rates higher than the generation above it because their parents may make them go with them.

I would like to see the breakdown by race and theology as well. I wonder if a majority of the popular churches will be gays-accepting, socially liberal type.

People have predicted death of Christianity and churches yet it never became true. Religion seems to be cyclical.
