1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,279 Speaker 1: There's an interesting article that came out about a focus 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,560 Speaker 1: group that was done in Pennsylvania, and pretty much the 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: article is saying that gen Z is walking away from 4 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party and that could be a big problem 5 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 1: for them going forward because typically they've relied on the 6 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: young vote. 7 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 2: Well, you got to think that gen Z has grown 8 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 2: up in a world where if you are normal, you 9 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 2: have been the enemy of the Democrat Party. They have 10 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,319 Speaker 2: told you, especially if you are a male, that your 11 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 2: opinion is worthless, you should sit down and shut up, 12 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 2: and you are the cause of society's woes. And that 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 2: shouldn't surprise anybody that people are fleeing from that message 14 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 2: when you have disaffected them so severely. 15 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: It's interesting because they were quoting some of these people. 16 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: One is a twenty year old Independent and she said 17 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: that she's pretty much out of touch. She doesn't really 18 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: she doesn't remember learning much about going what's going on 19 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 1: in politics. She's totally not interested at all in the midterms. 20 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: There is also another twenty three year old female. She 21 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: said that there's a huge wave of her generation who 22 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: doesn't go out and vote in local elections. And then 23 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: they quoted a twenty year old Democrat who said that 24 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: both Biden and Trump had upset voters by breaking their 25 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: campaign promises. So there's a lot of disenchantment with the 26 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: Republican Party both sides. 27 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 2: There should be, And to that, I say it good 28 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 2: for them, because if you are disinterested in politics, you 29 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 2: probably shouldn't be participating with your vote anyway. Under joh 30 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: don't want you to vote. There we go see. And 31 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 2: I used to believe that, you know, more people should 32 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: be involved in politics. Everyone should vote, everyone should have 33 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: an opinion, everyone should be watching the news and engaging 34 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 2: in these conversations. And unfortunately, I found out in the 35 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:05,639 Speaker 2: real world that having politics infest every element of your life, 36 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: of the culture of entertainment, of games, of social media 37 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: has been nothing but a pox on society. I would 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 2: do anything to take us back to where more people 39 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: were unengaged and only the people who were really interested 40 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: in studying the issues participated in politics. It seemed to 41 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 2: work out better for us. 42 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: All, okay, Now, speaking of being unengaged, they quoted this 43 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: twenty two year old guy. His name is David, and 44 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 1: he said that he stopped using social media because all 45 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: it is is virtue signaling and inflammatory comments and contents 46 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: before like he's disengaging. 47 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 2: Before Elon Musk acquired Twitter, That's pretty much all it 48 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 2: was was left wing virtue signaling website
