It's time to stop treating Gen Z like babies.
The argument insists that Gen Z has reached an age where it can easily spot manipulation and would rather hear straightforward contrasts on issues like experimental gender interventions, prolonged pandemic restrictions that upended lives, crushing student debt for low-value degrees, skyrocketing housing costs tied to mass illegal aliens, aggressive deregulation and fraud-fighting to ease prices, permanent expansions of the child tax credit to support families, and locking up violent offenders to restore community safety — points presented as undeniable facts that cut deeper than vague future promises.
Treating them like fragile kids only insults their intelligence, the case goes, when a dose of unvarnished reality is far more likely to earn their respect.
If you’re worried about the Gen Z vote don’t treat them with kid gloves.They’re old enough now to know when they’re getting played. Just point out the obvious:- Republicans didn’t pump you full of psych drugs and try to convince you you were in the wrong body, Democrats did…
– Republicans didn’t shut down their states for months during COVID and derail your life, Democrats did that.
– Republicans didn’t put you $150K into debt for a worthless degree, Democrats did that.
– Republicans didn’t let in millions of illegals over 4 years causing housing to skyrocket, Democrats did.
– Democrats aren’t trying to bring down prices via deregulation, deportations and rooting out fraud, Republicans are doing that.
– Democrats didn’t make it easier to start a family by permanently expanding the child tax credit, Republicans did that.
– Democrats aren’t making your community safer by locking up violent criminals, Republicans are doing that.
These are all demonstrably true statements that will do far more to win over young people than promising them the moon, especially when we all know the world doesn’t move that fast.
Stop tiptoeing around them like they’re children.
Unless the debate is about burritos… if you know, you know. And we're just kidding, sorta.
