Why socialism resonates with Gen Z and Millennials across the US

Don't blame them. They just want all of the same free stuff for themselves that we dole out to the underclass; free housing, living stipends, free food, free healthcare, free college, free bus passes...

They see the same TikTok videos of Shaniqua with her EBT haul and think, "I'd like to eat steak too."

That’s a big part of it. The other part is no matter how hard they work, their company may lay them off anyway, even when the company has billion dollars profits. So they’re not only jealous of the EBT class, they see their employer as an antagonist, rather than a blessing.

They just don’t see a lot if motivation to work hard anymore, for someone else, and starting your own business is harder than ever, as the system is designed to crush you and reward the giants. The pandemic was when things really started to flip.
