gen z is simultaneously pretty sex positive and virginity positive

Boomers:

“Women who sleep around and wear crop tops and short shorts are wh*res with no self-respect, your body is a temple”

“Young people today are sexless losers who spend all day their phone, when I was in high school half my class got drunk and gave each other chlamydia”

Sorta related, what’s with the UK and so many shitty sensationalist right-wing tabloids? Like, fox news is probably our most insane mainstream fake news outlet, why do they have so many?

I only found one poll measuring 18-24 year olds (Harvard-Harris) and they phrased the questions in a really manipulative way; like you can immediately infer support for Israel would be lower if they didn’t force you to pick between “Israel” and “Hamas” (and when you don’t even have a “no answer” option, people who are generally pro-Palestine but don’t want to openly side with Hamas will just… not answer). And yet pretty surprisingly, half of 18-24 yos sided with Hamas?

All this poll tells me is gen z is relatively based and millennials are also a bit more based than I assumed

A lot of people also aren’t falling for it since they remember 01

I’m sure a lot of people can see that, but it’s also kinda ironic how people who weren’t even old enough to truly remember post-9/11 are far more on the right side of history on this lol

Like I’m 20, no one my age was even born on 9/11 and yet it definitely seems like the majority of people my age support Palestine, and actively supporting Israel almost seems fringe. Meanwhile most 30-35+ year old Americans who should be seeing the parallels seem like proud zionists

Ok that makes sense, in my head I honestly assumed an abbreviation or a euphemism for the word you’re talking about in the spoiler would have the same effect, but I didn’t think about how different words can be more striking.

Ngl I don’t fully understand the point of content warnings in so many cases where the warning is equally as potentially triggering as the content itself.

I get it if the content of the post is actually worse, but in a lot of cases it’s like, people already mention the same exact thing they’re giving a warning for… by saying it in the warning. Example:
