anecdotally I do know some people who've finally moved past "but if you don't voot blue you're voting for trump" in the past year or so. Not a ton, but a couple, and they aren't necessarily hardcore leftists either just done with genocide joe's shit

I think a lot of those people will start singing a different tune the closer the actual election gets and the more the media resumes talking about Trump.

The youth doesn't watch "the media"

"The media" ends up in front of you whether you watch it directly or not. Shit filters down into social media and online discourse.

There's a reason the youth are incredibly negative about Israel and it's not because they get their information from msnbc

Well yes one benefit of social media is us leftists get a bit of a voice on there too. But make no mistake MSNBC has their fingers in that pie too.
