There’s an anti-Left storm brewing among the once conservative/libertarian Generation Z, which follows a predictable and dangerous path that’s left a trail of destruction throughout history.
It came to light in the split between Ben Shapiro and Tucker Carlson last week over Carlson’s platforming of Nick Fuentes, the virulent antisemitic, pro-Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler-adoring, Holocaust-denying influencer, who’s become the heroic voice of Gen Z’s heterosexual white Christian men who have been devastated the hardest by America’s decline.
Shapiro called Carlson out for giving Fuentes an uncontested platform, leading to a bitter parting between two friends who had fought to preserve a conservative America.
The breakup of a bromance between alternative-conservative media heavyweights made headlines.
But the real story is the anti-left’s disturbing path, which feeds on Fuentes’s galling rhetoric, that’s becoming their uncontested rallying cry.
Gen Z is mad as hell and turning their anger to the usual cast of scapegoats: Jews, women, immigrants, minorities, Baby Boomers, and government conspiracies. We’ve seen this play before, and we know the results.
Gen Z is waking up to the reality that they’re inheriting the overwhelming problems of a debilitated America that they didn’t create and can’t solve by relying on traditional conservative politics. They’re suffering consequences created by generations of Baby Boomer and GenX politicos who wrecked their shot at the American dream by sacrificing their future for short-term political wins years before they were born. Here’s what they face.
They’re the first entire generation that’s predicted to underachieve their parents’ success. They aren’t marrying, and when they do, their divorce rates are at an all-time high.

It seems like some are making a mountain out of molehill with Carlson’s interview of Fuentes.
The reason being Carlson’s recent epic takedown of Senator Ted Cruz immediately following Cruz having moronically posited a purportedly biblical basis for overweighted U.S. FedGov military and economic support for the modern secular state of Israel.
Carlson was 100% right to ridicule that.
Cruz and anyone else who holds to that hallucination need to retrieve themselves from it.
They are wrong to seek to destroy the man who extracted that confession from Cruz.
Gen Z’s problems are caused by leftist democRATs.
Every generation faces challenges. Gen Z has been molded by King Obama and his Buddy, King Biden, with his anti-American rhetoric for almost 2 decades. Things are worse, not better, and they know it. The challenge is to make things better, but this generation isn’t up for a challenge. No, this is a generation of participation trophies, not hard work and sacrifice. They will absolutely run towards anybody with a smile promising free stuff, without looking to the high road.
When the Socialism, Laziness, and selfishness fail, they will turn to blaming somebody. They will blame the generations before them, the generations after them, everybody but the persons in the mirror. Most Generation Z’s don’t live in reality. Like Gravity, math, and Laffer curve, somethings just are and life is unforgiving for those who can’t come to terms with them.
You listed groups that are majority left wing, and then threw in boomers who aren’t a left wing group.
I think some folks are grossly overestimating how much influence Tucker has and I doubt that most Gen Zers have even heard of Fuentes.
But, as they say, evil prevails when good men say nothing, and we lost Limbaugh and Kirk, which makes the dogs seem to sound louder.
As a member of Generation A+, I concur with your thought
“But there’s plenty of RINO cuck squishes to go around.”
Thanks for saying that truthful statement. Many blame the dems exclusively which is pure ignorance, the uniparty has been funding this for a decade and a half.
Another d-bag journo who refuses to verify his smears. Zero creds. There's a lot not to like about Fuentes, but this is not true.... just a regurgitation.
2nd rate, non-left pubs like American Stinker et al were supposed to be an answer to the fake news outlets, but like Orwell's pigs, they've become them.
...oh pls... you’re out in LEFT field calling American Thinker such... I don’t know Mason but AT is one of the best sources with solidly conservative writers and topics. And the quoted sentence is right out of the Carlson interview. What are you reading and why would you defend a creep like Fuentes? ...ymmv
They need to be educated on the word. Baby Christians can be led astray.
A very insightful post!
I’m so tired of the division fomented between us. Tucker gave Fuentes a chance to speak as he does with everyone. It doesn’t mean Tucker agrees with him.
Tucker subjected Ted Cruz to a hardball/inquisition type of grilling.
The contrast was severe, from what I have read about it.
Yep, yep, and yep.
I religiously follow “The Liberal Patriot,” a group of writers who for the most part have some common sense. Even THEY said not to read much into the elections and admitted that DemoKKKrats have major structural problems.
That said, the poisonous education of da youts is finally bearing fruit for them. They may not be DemoKKKrats, but they increasingly lack any sense of how things work.
“there’s plenty of RINO cuck squishes to go around.”
Yesterday’s Supreme Court decision affirming gay marriage is a classic case of how the Republican Party has failed.
Some folks around here think this is forever.
Young conservatives are giving this attitude the middle finger and saying “get out of the way and we will fix it”.
Those who have failed are now resorting to name calling.
It is like ghetto residents throwing rocks at firemen who arrive to put out a fire.
Pathetic.
Correct.
Our current gender confusion started with the Post Office and the female male man.
Tucker Carlson is a piece of shit. He platforms the worst of the worst leftists and Islamists, and lobs softballs at them, while aggressively grilling and attacking actual conservatives like Ted Cruz.
Did you even see his love-fest with the utterly vile lawyer who is a FARA-registered agent for Maduro AND Nigerian Islamists presented as an "expert" to "refute" claims of anti-Christian violence in Nigeria?
Did you hear Carlson defend the Communist thug Maduro as "socially conservative"?
“The contrast was severe, from what I have read about it.”
Have you actually listened to both interviews?

There are a lot of left-wing boomers. Trust me.
American Stinker at its best...
