Media/Journalism Cringe Megathread - Hot off the Presses

[StormEagle]

Slate advice columnist goes full Defcon 1 over mother whose teenage daughter wants to be a housewife and stay-at-home mom.

Uh, oh! Another vulnerable young teen captured by TikTok, probably taking up vaping and creating an OnlyFans account.

Slate columnist freaks out because her 16 year old daughter wants to be a stay at home mom.

Ok, so, child abuse by insane liberal aside. that is genuinely funny.

“You want to get married to a good man, have a family and a legacy?! This girl is insane! Orderlies, take her away!” - these very sane “parents”.

Liberals continue to go out of their way to keep proving an old saying. All children deserve parents, but not all parents deserve their children.

conservatives already have more kids then liberals, this is only going to increase with time and no you cant solve it with emigration because this is a global thing. This is one of the reasons I'm convinced the left is just going to give up on democracy entirely.

You have made this argument 1000 times and it's just as pointless and wrong now as ever.

Conservatives having more kids, does not mean more future Conservatives.

There is no guarantee those kids will be conservative. With all the indoctrination in school, it's quite likely a lot of them won't be. Also tons of kids go against their parents just to build up their own identities.

Besides, we are at the point now, that we are having illegal aliens cross the border at a higher rate than Americans are birthing children.

Thank you!

And there are ways to fix those problems. Some civil, others…not so much. I would prefer the former. But we are running out of time.

Lord willing, the traitors running our nations will slip up and fire the first shot and give us an excuse to take action.

Though given the lawfare we have seen, the attacks on patriots and how those responsible get away with but a slap on the wrist, I have my doubts.

We seem to have and a lot of ‘first shots’ fired at us. But such has always been the case throughout history.

 

[SoliFortissimi]

Lord willing, the traitors running our nations will slip up and fire the first shot and give us an excuse to take action.

At which point you get eliminated, because they hold all political institutions, have the number advantage, and hold all industries and urban centres.

Lose the suicidal self confidence. Victory comes from strategy, not elan.

They have been firing the first shot for a while.

I literally say that a little further down.

Not correct in a number of ways.

The left does hold all of the insitutions but so did the nobility right before the french revolution.

They do hold the cities but they have badly mismanaged them for decades now and thats starting to come home to roost hard. Industry? A lot of that has been moved either into red areas, or over seas, and what they have left is held by union voters who are incredibly bitter about having their needs and desires put under litterally everyone else for 50 years now.

And the numbers advantage is slowly sliding away, the left is currently stronger yes but you can see the visable rot everywhere.

 

[SoliFortissimi]

Firstly, you realize that was the genesis of the Left, right?

Secondly, the nobles were a tiny fraction of the population. The Left considerably outnumbers conservatives in the West, especially in the cities.

The lefts numbers are shrinking, their very ideology is incredibly anti natal and anti family and thus is true across the entire world. This isn't to say they don't have strength. The next 30 years will see them still have quite a bit of power. After that they wont have the numbers to win democratically any more.

This is a marathon not a sprint and we fight so our grandchildren will win the final battle.

 

[Typhonis]

The Left also has a problem with this thing called forgiveness. They will eat their own.

And yet I've been hearing about how Gen Z leans more conservative than Millennials.

 

[Zachowon]

My wife and I talked about that actually.
Because most of Gwn Z became adults at the end of Trump, we may have had parents or social media tell us how bad he was doing, but we remember hoe good things were economic wise.
We also remember things like Michelle Obamas school food program....
I would say Gen Z is more center then anything just due to the nature of hating both sides and just wanting to grill.

Most if Gen Z grew up around millenials who influenced them heavily into thinking leftist ways, but are breaking from that hold due ti well....
Look at what the left is doing.
Trans, men in women sports, etc.
Have started to drive away more and more of the Gen Z.

Honestly as A millenial at least I got to enjoy the 10 year period of history called the 90s when things were not on fire, yeah we got fucked but we at least got to have some good childhood memories.

The Z's got fucked in every single way that matters, like holy shit they got fucked, what happened to them was just unfair and I openly admit they have it harder then us because just.....god damned.

As someone born at the start of the Gen Z, 99, the cusp years being salled Zillenials due to the fact we were born at in the 90s and seeing how much change happend in such a short time, and growing up in more then anything.

I remember when Netflix was mail only and only just started streaming. Amazon was books mostly with a few other things.
When prime movies started and was just early EARLY streaming.
I remember Blockbuster and gamestop pro order midnight releases.
I remember the reruns of 90s shows and the greatness of early 00 shows.
I was on if the last of my generation to be born before 9/11.

That is the thing about gen z.
We grew up in a w9rld completely diffrent from that of our parents and the people who looked up to.
I never lived in the 90s, woth the oldest of Gen Z being from 97, we don't remember the 90s.
That is the life we live, and have had to deal with.
We never had good times until Trump and that was the oldest of us, the rest only experienced it through thier parents. Never knew what adulting was like until Biden came to power

 

[SoliFortissimi]

I personally feel that Gen Z are going to be just as radical as the Woodstock generation. This is a generation that grew up on the internet rather than in the real world and is correspondingly disconnected with how reality works outside their sanitized bubbles where they can just ban anything that dissents with their worldview.

Gen z are pretty close to millennial politically. You claim they're moderate - they're actually the LEAST moderate of any generation. Link and quote below.

They're more liberal than ANY of the older generations, except millenials. They're pretty close to millennials.

They tend to be pro gun control, pro LGBT and identify as lgbetc at higher rates than any previous generation. Pro using big government to fix things, pro abortion, and pro just about every other left wing stance.

Yeah, there's a lot of them who claim no political affiliation. They'll vote left on the ballots. They're typically unaffiliated because they don't think democrats are left wing enough.

And yes of course there are some conservatives. They're the minority.

Gen z will be pushing the country more left.

I've got a link so you can look at some numbers:

A Political and Cultural Glimpse Into America’s Future: Generation Z’s Views on Generational Change and the Challenges and Opportunities Ahead | PRRI

A new national survey of Generation Z, the most racially and ethnically diverse generation in our nation’s history, finds Gen Z adults are more liberal than older Americans. Additionally, most Gen Zers, particularly Gen Z Democrats, are more likely than older Americans to believe that...

www.prri.org

Political Ideology
With the exception of millennials (24%), Gen Z adults (28%) are notably less likely than other generational cohorts, including Gen X (36%), baby boomers (40%), and the Silent Generation (46%), to identify as conservative. By contrast, Gen Z adults are the most likely of any generation to identify as liberal, at 43%, compared with one in four members of the Silent Generation (24%), baby boomers (25%), and Gen Xers (25%), and 39% of millennials. With the exception of the Silent Generation (29%), Gen Z adults (28%) are the least likely to identify as moderate.

If you think it's bad right now, just wait and see what's to come. The internet will be gentrified, forums like these shut down for hate speech, it will be legal to arrest someone for social media posts, insulting political leaders will be illegal, corporations will become nomenklatura, taxes will completely destroy the American disposable income, corruption will skyrocket, race relations will collapse into South African levels, and fossil fuels will be banned.

And the media will call anyone who complains about this a Nazi.

Yes and no.
They could do that after winning - but not keep for long time,becouse state simply cease to exist and would be partitioned by still existing states,or fall into anarchy.

You are speaking about situation like in soviets - but it was possible ONLY becouse Wall Street supported them with technology and money.Once Reagan cut it,they fall.

Here,there would be nobody to support your gerioncratic woke regime.
