Why are younger men so right wing?

[Anonymous]

This whole thread is out of date and out of touch.

Reality is that Gen Z males are ditching MAGA in droves.

Because they’ve been raised by their liberal mothers to be timid, non-confrontational and weak. They accept their lot in life and default to settling at every fork in life’s road.

This take is a fantastic demonstration of why conservatives males are lonely. Girls aren’t looking for a confrontational man. Lol

My very liberal Dd went through college dating guys (and a couple of girls) from every sector. She had a huge crush on a republican guy. She was willing to put politics aside. He was very good looking, funny, charming, charismatic. She was crazy about him. He claimed to be more socially liberal and appeared to have friends in marginalized groups. But then she found his TT account she wasn’t meant to find. He didn’t use his name but the account was suggested because he was a contact in her phone. His tiktoks were full of racism, homophobia, and misogyny. So that was the end of that. Her current partner is nonbinary (born male), and I could not ask for a better partner for my daughter. Our entire family adores them, even the ultra maga grandparents. This kid is sweet, intelligent, compassionate, and respectful. A partner in the truest sense of the word. Not someone to stand over her and dominate her - someone who walks beside her and values her.

Voter anger at Biden's open borders and at all the taxpayer benefits for illegal immigrants is fading, and it's being replaced by something else: voter dislike of deportations, ICE overreach, and Trump's ugly rhetoric.

When ICE tries to deport innocent hard-working maids, it makes the voters queasy. The mistreatment of illegal immigrants is a very bad look for Republicans.

Americans would rather have "chaos at the border" than this chaos in American cities. Voters are starting to shift toward Democratic immigration policy again.

P.S. Biden’s open borders created chaos in American cities.

P.S. There were NEVER open borders.

There's a lot of deranged right wing "my narrative needs young males to believe this" insistences throughout. Maybe that used to work as a strategy but now they're catching on.

In a way, upper middle class Democrats will enjoy being "the principled opposition," the out-of-power minority party. The more middle- and working-class people gravitate toward Republicans, the richer and classier the average Democrat remaining becomes.

More and more, Democrats vote how they vote and think how they think because of status-seeking and status-signaling games. It's easier to play those games when you don't have to campaign at every poor black church in the South.

Increasingly, dcurbanmom types are the core of the Party. This is hurting us with independent voters, but it's helping us become the powerful central force among Democrats.

Yep. It’s this.

Smart people (aka those educated at elite institutions) vote for Democrats. We hold advanced degrees, live in urban coastal areas, and are irreligious.

Republican voters are poor, déclassé, evangelicals who are simply dumb for “voting against their interests”.

Correction- "smart people" will no longer vote for GOP and Dem politicians until the influence of money in politics is reduced. We're sick and tired of watching our elected officials prioritize the interests of their mega-donors over the American people they were elected to represent. Only idiots and wealthy mega-donors will vote for this scum under the current arrangement.

Employers don't want this either. They want employees who are smart and can figure things out rather than having a dumb battle about who can shout the loudest.

quite the contrary grasshopper

More than 900,000 people were allowed in the country on immigration parole under CBP One, generally for two years, starting in January 2023.

USing the CBP App let anyone enter the US and apply for asylum, then get a date some years in the future , go in US and dissappear.

and some states gave out drivers licenses to illegal aliens.

to ignore reality and say there was a closed border is mind boggling.

I hope that voters will realize that this gamification of deportation is not the answer. It is cruel, and it is also performative. Biden and Harris were focused on long-term solutions to the border crisis. But voters did not have the patience for this. The media didn’t have any interest in it, and the administration should have done a better job of informing the public. So now we are back to keeping score on which president deports the most people. But Trump took it too far. Conservatives had this vision of dark-skinned drug dealers being pulled off of school playgrounds all over America. Of little girls being rescued from dark-skinned rapists. But I think they are starting to realize that if the worst of the worst are being deported, then why are we seeing footage of people being dragged from their workplaces, immigration hearings, graduations? Trump is ALL ABOUT optics and ratings. If he was capturing the worst of the worst, he would show us. Conservatives also might be catching on that the deportation numbers he puts out there are completely arbitrary, and he has no way of backing them up. He pushed his cult a little too far, and some of them are catching on.

https://bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Root-Causes-Strategy.pdf

Quick summary of their strategy from chat gpt, so feel free to fact check and let me know if you find proof something is incorrect.

1. Root Causes Strategy: Long-Term Reduction of Migration

One of the central long-term strategies of the Biden-Harris administration has been addressing the root causes of migration — particularly from Central America (Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador).
• Vice President Harris was tasked in 2021 to lead efforts to address the root causes of migration rather than manage border security directly. Her role was to use diplomatic and economic tools to reduce why people leave their home countries in the first place. 
• This plan, formalized as the Strategy to Address the Root Causes of Migration, focuses on economic opportunity, combating corruption and violence, strengthening governance and human rights, and supporting civil society in the region — aiming to create conditions that lessen migration pressures over years, not just days. 
• The strategy involves coordinating with local governments, the private sector, and civil society to build sustainable development and stability — all part of a longer-term effort to deter migration by improving conditions at the source. 
• Harris’ efforts reportedly helped spur billions in private sector investment that could create jobs in the Northern Triangle, potentially reducing migration over the long run. 

⸻

2. Expanding Legal Pathways and Structured Entry

The Biden administration has also focused on creating lawful alternatives to irregular crossings, which is both a border management tactic and a long-term stabilization tool:
• Biden rolled out programs allowing tens of thousands of migrants (from Venezuela, Cuba, Haiti and Nicaragua) to enter the U.S. legally each month if they have sponsors and meet vetting criteria — reducing pressure on the border by providing regulated entry channels. 
• The administration has encouraged migrants to stay where they are and apply legally for entry — signaling that unlawful border crossings can overwhelm the system and are not the preferred route. 

⸻

3. Structural Border Enforcement and Modernization

While policies aimed at the long term often focus on source-country conditions and legal pathways, Biden also pursued changes intended to modernize how the border operates:
• The administration has pushed to expand asylum restrictions under certain conditions and developed enforcement tools that are tied to entry-rule compliance — aiming for a more orderly asylum system rather than ad hoc spikes in irregular crossings. 
• Biden increased funding for enforcement and worked to improve coordination with Mexico and other partners to reduce migrant flows before they reach the U.S. border. 

⸻

4. Bipartisan Solutions and Legislative Efforts

A truly long-term solution requires Congress, and the Biden-Harris administration has publicly supported bipartisan border security legislation:
• Harris and the White House backed a bipartisan border security agreement in the Senate that would have funded technology, personnel, and court resources to manage migration more effectively — though it failed to pass without sufficient Republican support. 
• Administration officials have emphasized that real, enduring solutions — including modernized immigration law and orderly border processes — will require legislative action from Congress. 

⸻

Summary

✔ Long-Term Focus: The administration’s strategy emphasizes long-lasting conditions to reduce the drivers of migration — especially instability and lack of economic opportunity in Central America — rather than only short-term enforcement. 

✔ Structured Legal Pathways: Expanding accessible, lawful entry channels to reduce irregular crossings is part of managing migration sustainably. 

✔ Modernization & Enforcement: Changes in asylum eligibility and border security efforts aim to make the system more orderly and predictable. 

✔ Bipartisan Legislative Support: The administration claims that long-term fixes require new immigration laws passed by Congress. 

wow, no wonder progressives are unable to implement policy.

maybe focus on results, and not adverbs/adjectives.

8,000,000 illegal aliens allowed to flood the border. they created an app to import MORE illegal aliens easier.

that was the results of Harris.

Good lord. Thank you for proving my points.

✅ No patience for long-term solutions. (I.e. “Focus on results”)

✅ Gamification by focusing on numbers/scores. (I.e. 8,000,000 flooded the border)

You should know a couple of things

1. 7.2 million border encounters dies not round up to 8 million

2. Border encounters are not entries. Please read this article from snopes in its entirety to learn more.

Oh yes there were. 5,000 to 8,000 per day flowing in through open borders unvetted with Customs and Border Patrol recategorized as babysitters.

You aren't rewriting history, pal.

MAGAs put things like "school of hard knocks" on their profiles like it's some kind of badge of honor. To the rest of us it's a huge red flag, basically a person advertising to the world that they are too stupid to listen and learn and do things the right way and instead have to learn everything confrontationally and the hard way.

Yes! I hired a guy like this, and not only did he antagonize the rest of the team, destroying their productivity, but he also blamed everyone else for his mistakes, getting angry and combative every time. He was the most junior person on the team, yet was constantly trying to lecture the senior-most person on the team, who had way more education and training than him. It was a rough summer until he left.

Let me guess he was a Democrat politician that was trippling down on immigration after losing several times.

NP... the migrant caravans started in 2017 and 2018, during the Trump administration. The biggest one (your 5,000-8,000) happened in October 2018, when Trump was President.
