Gen Z is leaning more politically right than old gens at their age, especially males. A Gallup study found that Gen Z teens are twice as likely to identify as conservative compared to their Millennial parents at the same age. Additionally, nearly half of men 18-29-years-old believe there is substantial discrimination against men in America, a significant increase from a third in 2019, as reported by the Survey Center on American Life. Social media content targeting young men, dubbed a “Gen Z bro media diet,” often promotes right-wing ideas, contributing to this shift. But, Gen Z women are also increasingly engaging with conservative content, influenced by the rise of political and social justice discussions online. (Vox)
