People like to complain about boomers, but let's be real here: are the zoomers that much better?
Boomers, zoomers and coomers
It's a minority of young men not a majority. And Gen Z women are more progressive than any other generation by some margin.
Here's some numbers:
68% of 50-64 year American women describe themselves as strong feminists. For 18-34 year olds that number's only 63%
18% of millenial Americans think that we should be using MORE fossil fuels. For Gen Z that number's 23%.
Europeans ages 18 to 29 are LESS likely than older groups to support fiscal redistribution. This age group in the EU is also more likely to attribute poverty to “laziness or lack of willpower,"
In conclusion, gen z are quite clearly the worst and should get off my lawn.
It looks like you picked one example from every link you posted that supported your view, while ignoring all of the other examples where Gen Z are leading or equal to Millenials in terms of progressiveness.
Ok, zoomer.
A lot of the people in the article are Gen X and Millennials.
Wankers. The lot of them.
Non-wankers, in fact.
Ironically, people who wank are usually less of a wanker than people who spend all day talking about not wanking.
Are you comparing abstaining from masturbation to expediting the destruction of the planet, economy, etc...?
Yes, because as the OP article makes clear the nofap movement is a right wing pipeline, so people embracing the one will eventually also embrace the other.
Yes. They're exactly the same.
Username checks out.
Totally agreed. I just wanted to be sure we were on the same page.
