I get so confused with people portraying Gen Z as these radical socialists when time after time voting shows they are anything but. Especially Gen Z men as a group are extremely conservative. At least in the US.

Gen Z men think being rude and unrespectful will get the girlfriends. They are in the not fucking around phase of not fucking around and not finding out.

I too have seen the horseshoe effect in play as well.

At first I was like a cocktail and a vibrator. Then looked at the previous panels and it's actually microphone... Maybe..

It's true, I'm saving for retirement, but I sure as shit am not expecting it to exist when I get there.
