Friendly reminder that ageism is a ploy used by capitalists to distract from the only meaningful difference between groups: their class. Because the Boomers are gonna be dead pretty soon and posting memes blaming them for societal problems which existed before them and which will exist after the fact is going to do about as much to improve the material conditions of the world and the people in it as it does today. Which is to say: dick all.
And even then you’re giving genZ too much credit. They don’t legitimately give two fucks about the world. If they did they’d go after Coca Cola / nestle. Not someone’s gramma who has all the power of a pen cap to control the world.
I don’t think any generation is a monolith and I’m sure there are plenty of Gen Zers who both don’t go after their grandmas and who do hate Nestle/Coke/corporations in general. My joke was more about how Gen Z was disenfranchised as a result of incompetent educational policy. Common Core is terrible.
If you’re talking about Ronald Reagan, he literally won or tied in every age group, except for the 18-21 block, which he lost by 1 percentage point. https://ropercenter.cornell.edu/how-groups-voted-1980

The 18-21 year olds in 1980? The Baby Boomers who are 61-64 now?
If Gen Z could do basic math, they’d be very upset right now. Thankfully Common Core made sure that will never happen.
