I think it's not so different from millennials. A 22 year old white man from Missouri is probably going to be exactly the same as all of his ancestors. A 22 year old in Oregon, same. I think this whole "we are getting more conservative!" Thing is more of a cope than an actual statistic. I mean, how could you even accurately measure that statistic? I'm not going to fill out a form online describing my political beliefs lol. That sounds sketch af.

Ok, I'm sure anyone that uses reddit has seen the "why is gen-z so conservative?" Posts. Frankly, I think that's not accurate. I'm gen Z, literally no one I know in my age bracket is remotely "conservative". Most of them are either run of the mill blue voters, or leftist and recognized that voting for Kamala or Trump wouldn't fix anything and if the Democrats want votes they need to move left, not right. Liberals just can't fathom that.

Who was at college campuses protesting the genocide in Gaza? Gen Z. Who said they wouldn't vote for anyone who supported Israel's slaughter of Palestinians? Gen Z. Liberals and Democrat establishment did not listen and instead arrested and suppressed us.

Sure there are some Andrew Tate bros sure. But those guys were always going to vote fascist, they come from Christian fundamentalist households. They are born into the ideology.

Liberals really just cannot fathom that the left had no candidate. Hell, I know this is very dem-soc of me, but a Bernie-like candidate would have likely done so much better because Bernie said things other than "Trump bad". He appealed to class struggles. We even heard from some people in 2016 that when Bernie left, they either didn't vote or went to Trump because he made a bunch of promises to the "little people ".

I refuse to read any prequel slander. I recognize that they may have ruined all big budget movies forever, but you guys just don't understand the vision.

Plus I like spaceship shooty movie

Current energy output. We are getting closer to fusion energy every day. I'm also literally never taking a hexbear users "I did the math" comment as scientific fact.

Don't have to terraform mars, just have to get a decent population off of one rock.

Humanity has 3 purposes in my opinion. 1- make and consume art (in whatever form that may be). 2- protect life. 3- explore. We have always wanted to visit new places, go to new frontiers. Yes, we can lessen the strain on earth by better resource management, moving away from destructive practices.

We aren't going to stay just on this rock. And whoever gets their first might have a bigger say in what life is like beyond earth. The Soviets, Americans, China, they all knew the value in ensuring we aren't just stuck here and we actually progress.

It's probably what I'm most passionate about. And it upsets me when someone casts aside an entire academia because "we don't need it" or "it's too hard". What do they want? Just to be stagnant and have the same life as previous generations? What's the point?

China needs to step it up, fuck really any government needs to step it up. Because if not China, it's going to be the US or some billionaire loser who will set up slave camps and ensure Raytheon gets their money for installing missile launchers on the moon or something stupid.

Depressing. Earth is clearly already on a death spiral. I consider it only natural for humanity to spread, and stagnation leads to issues like we are dealing with now. Resource shortage, climate change, pollution.

All our eggs in one basket is a bad idea. In a just world, NASA or rather any space agency would have 10x or more the funding they do now. A lot of the data we have on the changing climate comes from these agencies.

And absolutely fuck having any psychopathic CEO use his resources to force humans into Mars before it's ready in the name of profits or some stupid show of force.

Mars can't be terraformed now, so we should be focusing on how to mitigate the dangers to earth, get better at going to space with less cost, and getting more people into careers that actually contribute to humanity like engineering, medicine and no more fucking "Business degrees".

Gilmour sucks and he always has. His guitar solos are the worst part of the song. His voice sucks, he's terrible at writing. I'll always be a little pissed that he essentially took the Pink Floyd name and used it for his solo career. Those last Floyd albums without Waters are unlistenable boomer pop, with no meaning other than "flying is fun".

Floyd is dead, the only part that is still alive is Waters, Gilmour is an old man dragging the corpse of a band around and saying it's him.

Israel is such a dangerous aggressor. Nuclear armed, bombing their neighbors, constantly waging war against an entire region, committing genocides. Please Iran, set off the biggest bomb you have in tel aviv.

Oh wow, few years ago I would have gladly taken that off your hands. Maybe try vaping communities? There are quite a few on reddit if you're willing to venture out there.
