After 2012, some Republicans worried that an evolving electorate, driven by young and non-White voters, had shifted against them permanently.

New Gallup data shows that, in the Trump era, the shift was heavily among young women.

Gen Z women are the future Republicans were so worried about

Since 2016, the views of young women have shifted sharply to the left.

The gender gap in this election is astounding... And GenZ women vs. men is mind blowing.

What is wrong with men?

@mastodonmigration @pbump WTF is wrong with GenX men?

@mastodonmigration @pbump

well a good number of them are misogynistic assholes

@mastodonmigration @pbump Gen Z men are kind of “normal”, relative to a shitty baseline.

But my oh my, Gen Z women just aren’t having it.

What's the story with the people between 45 and 64?

@mastodonmigration
These numbers reflect millions of men and women & show, even in the worst cohort, that there are many men who don’t want #TheFelonyGuy.
Shaming all men for the opinions of the majority is easy, but it’s the very essence of prejudice. I see women at his rallies, they revel in being his supporters.
Both sexes contain people who support him, convinced he is standing up for them.
Instead of shaming them, it behooves us to communicate to them why their choice is so self destructive.

No argument. Not talking about all men. Just the majority of them who support Trump.

This is a subject we should be talking about.

@mastodonmigration
I see the older cohort (which I inhabit) is trending wiser, but I think that the numbers are wrong. I know that the silent generation tends more conservative, but we old timers of the boomers are much more liberal. Also, among this oldest grouping there has been a natural Darwinian culling, due to the antivax philosophy of its weakest, and I hope that is going to produce a strong blue tint to the upcoming silver wave that I am hoping will knock the MAGA GOP into the dustbin of history.
@pbump
@CivilityFan @mastodonmigration @pbump Lol chill out. No one is shaming all men, it's just stats by gender.
@stevenroose
I’m not taking it personally but just noting some of the reactions. In truth I’d be for it if shame had any effect on these Neanderthals.

@mastodonmigration @pbump

Disgusted with my fellow men. I knew macho insecurity was rampant among my contemporaries, but come on, Gen Z men? Really?

@mastodonmigration @pbump I don't understand why there are any people on the right side of that chart. It's like voting for Sauron because "Well yes, he laid middle earth to waste and a bunch of hobbitards got all unhappy, but I thought he had some good ideas about ecology".
@mastodonmigration @pbump
Hey! According to the graph, us baby boom men are coming to our senses too

@davidarnell @pbump

Not sure +10 Trump is something to brag about.

@mastodonmigration @pbump

Perhaps mistreated men tired of being accused of mansplaining and other derogative accusations feel better with Trump. Who knows...

@pbump A blessing on the memory of the Suffragettes!
@pbump If I were worried about losing the votes of a given demographic, I would simply not strip them of their bodily autonomy.
