This is not my personal opinion, I know Gen Z men who voted for Harris. But the voter demographics really speak for themselves, and maybe now people will look at the radicalization of young men as a serious (but solvable) issue.

I’m a young queer man(-ish) and after voting for Kamala have never felt more at fault for literally every problem the US has than whenever I open Lemmy. The blue party that I’ve been registered to and campaigned for since day one seems exceedingly good at making sure I know that, despite everything, somehow I’m the problem.

Like fuck, I finally get why people suddenly get the urge to be ‘the fucking problem’ after being told they are the problem for so long.

Sure.

Lemmy, like Reddit, ain't never been nice, and now it's in total meltdown. So basically, double the 'ain't nice'

lots of people are very uneasy right now, don't do anything you'll regret, friend.

'the problem is young men' is such a half baked 'analysis', kids have always been edgy bastards, I don't think that will ever change, and the revolting youth have always been to blame.

If the dems are making you feel that way, I don't know why you'd campaign for them. Better organising can be done in your Union.

Bold of you to assume unions will still be a thing in America in the near future.

Could you clarify what you mean by union?
