Wanna get an idea of how to appeal to young men and get them to vote for Republicans again? Here's a start to understand*
*and before you dismiss them as being lazy, spending all their money on starbucks, avocado toast and Iphones, all the jobs going to women, DEI, average first time home purchases being delayed more than a decade compared to a generation ago, average age of marriage, marriage becoming more rare, the birth rate being bad....its all connected....and its not just "laziness" or "being spoiled" on their part. So dismiss these at your peril.
P.S. There is a silver lining. They hate DEI. They hate Wokeness. They want to support/defend Western Civilization even though they feel - justifiably - that it has let them down.
The average zoom is non White
They are trying to find out what “Western Civilization” looks like.
They certainly do not see it anywhere around them.
Is there any question they would turn their parents into Soylent Green.

Connor Tomlinsin - formerly on the Lotuseaters has some great comments about it

Its fine to disagree with some of the memes blaming a lot of this on Boomers (as a GenXer myself I don’t think that’s entirely fair). But ya gotta admit a lot of this really hit the bullseye with what the world is like today - especially for young men.
Needless to say, all the right people are FURIOUS about these memes going around the internet.
On the sixth meme it’s a bit mixed up. Anakin was Luke’s father. So Luke wouldn’t be asking Anakin for his social security, and Anakin says no. It would be the other way around.
They have abandoned God for fictional-space-character paganism. That will not end well for them.
That wasn’t Luke asking Anakin for Social Security. That was Obi Wan.
When I said all the right people are furious, I meant, feminazis, 3rd worlders wanting to invade and destroy Western Countries (while stealing their wealth and displacing their own kids from their inheritance).
The one about "but without the sand people we wouldn't have this yummy food!" was taken directly from an idiotic statement by Piers Morgan - though others have said it too.....some very comfortable Boomers really would sell out their own grandchildren's future for the sake of better food choices to stuff their faces with today. They are just THAT shallow and narcissistic.
>> especially for young men
So these brilliant, conservative, truth-minded young men vote for... DEMONRATS as the solution to their problems??!?
Try again?
“The one about “but without the sand people we wouldn’t have this yummy food!” was taken directly from an idiotic statement by Piers Morgan”
Good catch.
Piers Morgan is an excellent example of the worst of the worst—an arrogant fool.
Blame Boomers on everything, of course not. But it's mostly their fault.
The Greatest Generation spoiled them rotten. Instead of raising them properly...
"Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times."
Piers Morgan was born in 1965. So he is a member of Gen X.
But his attitude would a perfect embodiment of the Baby Boomer generation if he had been born a year earlier..
‘Blame Boomers on everything, of course not. But it’s mostly their fault.
The Greatest Generation spoiled them rotten. Instead of raising them properly...’
Then why not put the blame on The Greatest Generation?
>> Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.
Please finish the claim. Are you proposing that zoomers are strong men in the process of being created from hard times?
Or what?
>> Piers Morgan was born in 1965. So he is a member of Gen X. But his attitude would a perfect embodiment of the Baby Boomer generation if he had been born a year earlier..
So you’re free to plug individuals into your fourth turning scheme however and wherever you please to bolster your claims and support demonizing an entire generation? ROFL
By the way, in which branch of the US Military did you serve?
“”””””Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.””””””
Boomers were our last warrior generation and the last to live in an America before universal indoor plumbing and central heating and cooling, without A/C even in schools, they produced 10 million veterans and dealt with a physical world that today’s kids don’t even know existed, little things like primitive tires and car batteries, and crossing deserts with canvas water bags hanging from the hood ornament and water barrels for filling the radiators were kept on the side of the inclines on highways, many didn’t know TV until their teens, and work was hard, beginning jobs of ditch digging, and cleaning debris from the machines in machine shops, hauling the roofing shingles up ladders, car washes, bus boys, dishwashers, being the new kid meant some grubby labor work until JFK/LBJ’s immigration started replacing them and taking those entry level jobs and the cheap apartments.
