The problem is, young people have no problem being absolute hypocrites. They want less regulation when it benefits them, but they also want more regulation, taxes, socialism, when they think that will benefit them. Plus, no matter what they think about that stuff, it’s not going to affect their views on moral issues.

At best the libertarians might capitalize on this phenomenon, if they weren’t seen as a joke party, but they are, so I doubt that will happen.

Uber itself is a perfect example of hypocrisy at work. It has spent years fighting legal battles to allow the company to operate outside government regulations, but once it cuts deals with government agencies it works hard to screw the competition.

In New York City, for example, Uber has taken the unusual step of operating its service under the regulations of the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission (TLC). And now the TLC is taking steps to regulate Lyft out of business ... and Uber is one of the parties in the legal action against Lyft.
