I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I’d rather hear about things that are actually happening.

    And at least here in Finland, the under 25s are actually more conservative than millennials or even Gen X, which is highly alarming. They voted for an extremist right wing party in droves in our latest parliamentary election, something like 30% I think

      In America, it’s starting to shift that way as well. Gen Z is the first nominally sex-negative generation in, well…generations. They’re very inclusive and will say things like “sex work is real work.” But then they also seem to hate nudity in film and television. So it seems they’re fine with sex as long as it just…doesn’t involve them in any capacity. I think I heard a streamer one time say they were “puritan-pilled.”

        I’ve noticed as a pattern that it tends to be nudity/sex in media that might appeal to a straight male in particular that they tend to have the most problem with. Probably because the “puritan” wire gets crossed with the “pro-LGBTQ+” wire or the “appeal to women” wire.
