I am aware that fedi in general has an older user base than other social networks, but I’ve seen a few very upvoted posts recently that seem to blame young people for the current rise of fascism despite older generations still making up the vast majority of conservative and fascist voters in most countries.
Is this just a result of this being a bubble for older lefties not perceiving younger lefties or is there something else going on here?
Going through my reading history, there’s a lot fewer than I thought. Maybe I was the prejudiced one.
Here’s one that I had on my mind, but it’s not political and fuckery is to be expected from a 4Chan related community.
This comment is the one that prompted me to make this post, but upon further research I found that it’s actually kind of true for Germany (not the UK though, and for the US it’s a lot, but still not quite as much as older age groups), so it’s not as unreasonable a comment as I thought.
I’ll delete the post. Sorry.
