Summary
Gen Z posted greater voter turnout in 2022 compared to previous generations in midterm elections. As the 2024 election approaches, campaigning continues to be directed at this generation — including outreach led by Gen Z voters themselves.
Gen Z voters are more motivated to participate in elections due to specific policy issues, particularly reproductive rights. Political groups and candidates are implementing new strategies to engage this generation, including peer-to-peer organizing and authentic messaging.
Vice President Harris has been praised for her relatable social media presence, while former President Trump has appeared on popular male-dominated podcasts.
They’ll learn just like we did, voting doesn’t matter. Continuing this charade of democracy where we vote 2 parties and watch as things get worse year on year, or only concern being “Well the others will make it even worse”.
Real change comes from the streets, from riot and protest, that’s what has lead to everything we are now losing today because we no longer fight.
Cool, you first. Go ahead. When the Trump Gestapo start marching down the steer in broad daylight, go out and riot. We’ll be right behind you.
A few more days and we won’t have to deal with these lazy responses. Once Harris wins we can go back to focusing on the actual problems of capitalism and democracy.
