Many of the biggest stars on the right are quite young, Millennials or younger, such as Candace Owens, Charlie Kirk, Tomi Lahren, Steven Crowder and Ben Shapiro. The left keeps warning about this huge cultural shift that is going to be the result of younger generations moving to the left, but it’s been a big flop. 

Why isn’t the constant indoctrination from every part of life working to turn these kids into leftists? Part of the reason is their parents. The kids hear the left demonizing their parents merely for being white, Christians, or Republicans, and they see a disconnect. Their parents aren’t the monsters the left is making them out to be. Their parents are giving them a better upbringing than a lot of woke parents. Who wants to have every conversation with your parents revolve around race and white privilege? Who wants a parent who is constantly high?

The other reason is the left is starting to implode and attack itself, so many young people are finding themselves canceled even if they’re not vocal conservatives. One small slip-up and they’re subjected to a torrent of hate on social media. We’re not quite yet a totalitarian society where the government ensures that there is no dissent, so there is still room for youth to slip out of the left’s grasp. 

The left tries to polarize everyone by race, but the truth is we’re more mixed races than ever, and someone who looks white is often mixed. The child of a white and black parent isn’t buying the lie that his white parent is evil and and his black parent is a victim. The left’s contradictory messages are catching up. Racism was decreasing in society for years, until Barack Obama stirred things up and Black Lives Matter emerged. It doesn’t take too long digging through woke results on an internet search to find out that the U.S. is the least racist country in the world and was one of the first to end slavery. A recent survey of people around the world asking them where they would choose to move to overwhelmingly found the U.S. was the top choice, no other country came even close.

Check back each day to see them all!

There is a reoccurring myth in American politics that states that youth are generally extremely liberal. Conservatives are invited to write off the new generations until they mysteriously reappear later on their voter rolls when they become older, presumably after gaining experience in life.

However, there are other explanations as to the cause of the continuous drift to the right over the last decades. One of them is that many young people have always been conservative in the first place. Reports about cohorts of liberal young people are grossly exaggerated.

This is particularly the case with millennial voters. A new paper analyzing voter trends reveals three surprising facts that should encourage people to rethink conventional wisdom on their political outlooks. Published in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin , the new study collected data from three surveys that monitored about 10 million American adults from 1970 to 2015. The paper especially recorded the political views of the last three generations.

Fact 1: Young People Are More Conservative than Ever

The findings are indeed surprising, if not shocking. According to this new paper, millennials are much more likely to identify themselves as conservative than members of Generation X or even the Baby Boomers when they were the same age.

Equally astonishing is the fact that more high school seniors identify as political conservatives than those ten years ago. Finally, there is the extraordinary finding that more young people today consider themselves conservative than in the eighties, a heyday of young conservativism during the Reagan era.

Fact 2: Young People are More Polarized Than Past Generations

A second surprising fact is that not only are millennials more conservative, but they are more polarized than previous generations. Young Americans are more politically polarized now than at any time since 1970.

Overall, researchers found that twice as many adults hold "extreme" political positions in the 2010s than in the 1970s. But millennials are not trailing their elders; they are leading the way. This polarization is not around the extremely liberal positions that have long been assumed to be the domain of youth. Rather researchers are finding this polarization is driven by conservative issues.

Incredibly, the young people are even more conservative than their parents or grandparents. Among new college students, for example, some 23 percent of millennials lean far right, while only 17 percent of Baby Boomers and 22 percent of Generation Xers now accept the same identifier. Never have such figures been found in previous generations.

Fact 3: Researchers Don’t Know Why Millennials Are More Polarized or More Conservative

The final fact is that researchers don’t understand why millennials are more polarized or conservative, which is an indication that the data is not biased. Indeed, the research runs counter to the liberal narrative about youth that automatically assumes them to be extremely liberal and Democratic Party-aligned. According to the progressive leftist view of history, youth over time should become more liberal not less. Conservatives should be losing support not gaining it.

There is nothing in the credentials of the study’s survey takers and compilers to indicate they have a political agenda. If anything, they would probably tend to lean left. This is confirmed by the fact that the researchers and those commenting on the study have expressed surprise by the findings.

Some have conjectured that the rise of the Internet and 24-hour news has made the social identifying process more robust. Others point to a political climate that is much more ideological than in the past. However, the search for causes for the increasing shift right have yielded no firm conclusions save that further follow-up research is needed.

The importance of these three facts is highlighted by the growing influence of the new generations. Millennials and Gen Xers are now the largest sectors in the American electorate with 126 million voters compared to 98 million Baby Boomers and those from prior generations. It will also force the political parties to be more articulate and convincing since nearly 59 percent of millennials now identify politically as independents.

Studies like that of the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin are good news for conservatives who desire a return to order . To those who feel blue about the nation’s political future, there is a lot of political red on the horizon.

It’s not like the seeded article isn’t heavily linked to sources to back up the assertions made in it.  

This article is disinformational. Basically, a lie! Back here in reality, while younger people are less likely to identify as belonging to one political party or the other, as Democrats or Republicans, of those who do, they are way more likely to identify as Democrats...

Despite the left’s domination of education, the media, entertainment, business and the legal system, they aren’t making traction with young people.

Business Insider recently surveyed 1,500 young people from Gen Z, known as Zoomers, and found they were about evenly split between Republicans and Democrats. Sadly, all the news in the MSM blares that Gen Z is very liberal, and most of the major polling companies like Pew lean to the left so the real numbers aren’t getting out. Pew deliberately changes the narrative by doing things like breaking up polls into “white evangelicals” vs. “non-white evangelicals,” in order to cause division and never actually produce real data about what groups like evangelicals think….

…Since so many polling companies tilt to the left it is not easy to discover this trend. But as long as we can stop voter fraud, there is no sign the country will be tilting to the left anytime soon.

There are reputable reliable trusted polls that have tracked party affiliation by age groups for a hundred years. They all say you are wrong!

Gallup is not known to be among the more reliable polling outfits.  

Actually Gallup is a trusted polling company.

Who or what will you not slander for the gop?

This article is a pathetic lie.  ALL the evidence confirms that the vast majority of younger Americans regard the republicans with total contempt and disdain.  Propaganda like this article is a feeble attempt to convince the Trumpist base that they aren't abnormal.  Of course, it fails miserably.

It isn’t the article that’s being discussed here that is doing any lying here… 

it tells the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.  

You can get to hell by swearing to false witness.

I’m telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God.  

And, you should not use GOD's name...in vain!

it tells the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Using youth voting from the 2016 election to try and claim Republicans are becoming the party of youth is hilarious and of course, total bullshit. The youth vote spiked in 2020 with 53% of eligible voters under 30 voting which was almost 10% higher than the same demographic voting in 2016. The results are obvious, voters under 30 detest Republicans and their loser candidate.

" Based on our analysis of AP VoteCast data from The Associated Press, 61% of youth (ages 18-29) voted for Joe Biden, and 36% voted for President Trump."

circle.tufts

" Voters under age 30 leaned heavily Democratic, favoring Joe Biden over President Donald Trump by a wide margin (61 versus 36 percent)"

insidehighered

" Fifty-nine percent (59%) of 18-to-29-year-old Americans approve of President Biden’s job performance overall; 65% approve of his handling of the coronavirus and 57% race relations"

" By a margin of 2:1, young Americans expect their  lives  to become better (40%) under the Biden administration, rather than worse"

iop.harvard

Those are the facts. Only loser dipshits at the conservative lie factory Townhall would be trying to convince their ignorant gullible readers that the youth vote is trending towards old white religious bigot Republicans.

I did nothing of the sort.  I only speak the truth.  

The seeded article is the well documented truth here.  

Is 'Generation Z' the most conservative since WW2?

5hrs ago

Teenagers born after 2000 - the so-called 'Generation Z' - are the most socially conservative generation since the Second World War, a new study has found.

The youngsters surveyed had more conservative views on gay marriage, transgender rights and drugs than Baby Boomers, Generation X or Millennials.

The questioned were more prudent than Millennials, Generation X and Baby Boomers but not quite as cash-savvy as those born in 1945 or before. 

Scroll down for video 

Sociology experts class those born in or before 1945 as the Silent Generation; people born between 1946 and 1964 as Baby Boomers; those born between 1965 and 1980 as Generation X; and anyone born between 1980 and 2000 as Millennials.

Only 14 and 15-year-olds were surveyed, by brand consultancy , as they were classed as being able to form credible opinions by that age.

When asked to comment on same-sex marriage, transgender rights and cannabis legislation, 59 per cent of Generation X teenagers said they had conservative views. 

Around 85 per cent of Millennials and those in Generation X had a 'quite' or 'very liberal' stance overall. 

When asked for their specific view on each topic only the Silent Generation was more conservative that Generation Z….
