Why there wasn't a red wave
You tube ^ | 11/9/2022 | NO Panic

Posted on 11/09/2022 3:50:56 PM PST by Dagny Muriel

As a millennial, In my opinion there are 2 reasons for the Republican's issue in gaining the genZ and millennial support

1. We want more social freedoms. We believe the government has no right to dictate our lives. My body my choice, both ways. Do drugs, not my right to tell you no. You are gay? Cool, doesn't matter. Marriage is a religious institution not a government responsibility. Tax implications are another story and if two people are “married” the federal government should not be regulating morality. This is where Republicans mess up. Stop focusing on these petty things and focus on what matters. (THE ECONOMY, FOREIGN AFFAIRS, SPENDING ON OTHERS WHILE WE STRUGGLE, ETC)

2. Indoctrination is a thing and it is getting worse. When I was young I was told by a student teacher “democrats are for the people and republicans are for corporations”, BUT IT WASNT THROWN INTO MY CARTOONS! This "Nick news" aka political ad, has been running on Nickelodeon, over and over for at least a week.

Republican's need to shut up about the decisive social issues and focus on what they do best! The economic policy!

Too many millennials and Z’s are no good dirty rotten Marxists.

I would rather be on the right side of the abortion issue than to get a tax cut.

We can be on the right side of the abortion issue, but then lose elections in more liberal places. That’s the conundrum.

Moral hazards are the root cause of all the other bad stuff: more crime, more homelessness, more drug deaths, lousy economic policies, poor education, open borders, and on and on.

Some of those folks haven’t known ACTUAL hard times. Never learned actual history. 🤔

Republicans campaigned and spent money to try and get people to go to their precinct and vote for them

Democrats spent money for people to get as many ballots as they could and bring them to the precinct.

Dagny, apparently that is what you support. You, and others of your opinion, are focusing on those "petty" things, while enabling the big things to be done to you.

Marriage policy, one man/one woman, is not about morality, but support for families with children. As the birth rate falls, that becomes more important.

Yes they are the enemy. They are also the ones who are arrant physical cowards.The day of reckoning is coming for these evil bastards I passionately hope. A nice big war with China would be a good start with the US forced to reinstitute the draft and masses of Chinamen pouring ashore on Oahu after they nuke Pearl Harbor and other masses of the yellow menace grabbing the whole of Puget Sound. Oh yes, so much fun.

I believe you meant decisive but certainly these issues will be decisive when we are judged my our father in heaven.

I used to be a libertarian, still to some extent.

There is a reason there has never been a purely libertarian society. They would fall apart due to the anarchy.

If you know of one let me know.

All this purported freedom is pure BS. It is not freedom at all. It is sin. Democrats trade sin for absolute control. They give you pot and abortions in exchange for shots, masks, inflation, taxes, war, censorship, invasion of privacy, microlaws, restrictions on religion, and on and on. All for the freedom to fornicate and get stoned.

The emotional female vote.....destroying offspring is more important than the 33 trillion dollar debt, gas prices, inflation, crime, a dementiated president and wokism

We?

When did Gen Z elect this person as their official spokeshole?

Tyranny blooms from the ashes of libertarianism.
