I think they are learning about how much stuff costs and just went: “You know what, screw the stuff they teach at school, lets try X political system”
Like I doubt they even understand different political systems such as socialism, its just they are so fed up with the current system, they just don’t care anywmore and are willing to try any alternatives.
But they don’t actually know what alternative is good, so that’s why you also see some of them go towards the alt-right pipeline, as you can see with Gen Z Men voting for trump
They also don’t have good, compelling reasons to stay with the current system. They’re not getting much out of it, and the “oh, but the computer you’re making this on was created under capitalism” isn’t that compelling of an argument, especially when the alternative is choosing between eating, and buying the medication that stops your blood turning into acid.
The whole “system of true opportunity, where the best and brightest can shine” rings hollow when you’re working multiple jobs to survive, no matter how smart you are, and it feels like you’re extorted at every opportunity.
Yes indeed. For a lot of people it’s as easy as “current system bad, let’s try this other thing” and then they rationalize it somehow.
Personally I don’t think we have figured the right system out yet. And due to technological, economical and cultural development what worked best previously will most likely not be the best system moving forward anyway.
I’m all for trying out new things and see what works. A lot of what we do now obviously isn’t working and there’s so much counterintuitive stuff that happens that I say we, the people of earth, just try a lot of things, we have enough countries and suncountries that there’s room to test even things that seems like nonsense to most people.
100%. I think what comes next won’t necessarily be a super fair utopia, just whatever can survive the CIA trying to shut it down… and hopefully it’s better for humans. We’re breeding the “antibiotic resistant bacteria” of economic systems.
