A popular narrative suggests young people are liberal and getting more liberal. Thus, social media buzzed when a chart surfaced in spring that seemed to suggest 12th-grade boys had become overwhelmingly conservative.
As with many Reddit posts and viral tweets, the truth was more complicated. But the numbers do say this: Twelfth-grade boys are nearly twice as likely to identify as conservative versus liberal, according to a respected federal survey of American youth.

Excellent news. Now keep these boys away from Neoconservatives, and all shades of Bush, Rove and Fox news. Steer them toward nationalism and populism and we have a shot.
Duplicate.

Beat you by 19 seconds. Watching War Room, huh?
So ... they’re racists. Obviously.
...boys start out conservative and then are bent leftward by Lib parents (their mothers) and social pressure. Girls however, are nearly all liberal and only move rightward after they are married (which is few these days).
My 2 definitely are.
yes :) you win! I’ll ask to have mine taken down.
Girls are on OnlyFans.
Why are ya'll reading The Hill?............ 🤦♂️
Between the Bud Lite fiasco and all the fake transtesticle stuff going on these days it certainly makes sense to not identify with it. Plus the girls of that age often tend to like all the fake sex change crap, blue, orange, green or rainbow hair, lots of tat and fat, abortion and other things that make many young men go ‘no thanks.’
The left has become so extreme this doesn’t surprise me. We’re still bombarding girls with the same ‘empowerment’ message saturated with toxic feminism.
Boys will be boys, this trans crap isn’t going to sit well with them...they’ll rebel against the State dictated narrative.
The pendulum swings...
Of course they are.
Wait until the WEF made famine hits and more draconian lockdowns come. Sadly, it will be too late. Some people just need to get burned before waking up.
My son will be in 12th grade next year and from the conversations I have with him and about his friends I can agree this is happening. My son used to skew more liberal but lately he is really beginning to see the light. He comes to me with his observations about politics and world events and how the press portrays things. He also told me just based on gas prices alone he will vote for Trump. Gas prices are huge with teenaged boys.
The wokesters are anti-men.
They always have been, but they’ve taken off their masks.
Any informed male (who is not self loathing) has to be conservative.
This generation of boys have been attacked their whole life by almost all institutions. From schools, family and criminal court systems, businesses, churches, and advertisements they have been be-little’d their whole life. Many have been raised by single moms. The establishment institutions are almost all liberal. Is it any wonder they join the opposition?
We obviously need a 19 second waiting period for posting.

True my nephew is one
