The Big Split

Gen Z Females Conure Up a Daunting Political Gender Divide

For decades, race was the main political divide in America. To this day, black Americans inexplicably persist in voting against their self-interests by supporting craven Democrat politician in massive numbers despite the abject failure of any Democrat to improve their lives. Not even the collapse of the black family, rampant crime in their neighborhoods, and the lack of improvement in economic and educational prospects can shake them from their loyalty. All they’ve gotten for their trouble are more DEI programs and more shipments of new arrival from the border.

Now Gen Z women (ages 18-29) are following in this well-worn path over the cliff. According to a new NYT poll, the political gender divide among Gen Z is increasing and is now at an all-time high.

There is a now a shocking, incredible 51% political split between Gen Z men and Gen Z women. It’s “larger than in any other generation.”

“A recent New York Times/Siena College poll finds young voters have the greatest gender divide compared to every other age group by 51 points. Men between the ages of 18 to 29 favor former President Trump over Vice-President Harris by 13 points. While women in the same age group are choosing Harris over Trump by 38 points.”

Frankly, we should have known. They’re first generation of screenagers raised by TikTok and YouTube shorts and Taylor Swift-style vapid feminism.

They’re ahistoric and functionally illiterate. World history started in 2012 or something.

They’re also extremely susceptible to peer influence (see the epidemic of ROGD in this group of women) and brainwashing them digitally is almost too easy.

They are trend maximalists, doing all the trends all the time all at once.

Free Palestine! But first, free abortions.

Sinking your own lifeboat while you are still sitting in it—that’s so BRAT!

This year the big trend is emotionless man-hating and burn-it-all-down nihilism, with some spicy Jew-hating throw in. Did you happen to notice that every Hamas camp on college campuses last spring was run by Gen Z females?

Gen Z is so big that it “already represents $420 billion in yearly spending power. Experts estimate Gen Z will become the world’s largest demographic by 2026.”

And overwhelmingly, Gen Z girls are turning to the far left to deliver the goods they demand.

This is a fire alarm. This is the iceberg that sank Titanic. This is an epitaph-worthy development. Tattoo it on your forehead!

Men and women didn’t use to diverge so wildly. Once abortion became a political issue, women have tended to vote more for Democrats and men more for Republicans. The only women who vote like men are married Republican women these days.

I guess that’s because they don’t want their abusive Republican husbands to beat them if he sees them filling out the bubble for Kamala. You know how Republican men are! Frankly, I’m surprised these women vote at all—don’t their husbands keep them chained to the stove anymore? Sad!

The Lost Boys

Claire Cain Miller, the reported who worked on the gender-gap poll, called eight of the young Trump-supporting guys back to find out why they felt the way they did. They explained to her why they like Trump:

“Their concerns were mostly economic, like whether they could fulfill the traditionally masculine role of supporting a family.

In recent years, the two parties have been seen as offering men different visions of their place in American society, researchers said. While the right has embraced conventional masculinity, the left has seemed to shun it, leaving many young men looking for an alternative.

“I’m going to talk as a feminist: We do it, when we try to suggest women are brilliant and men are the problem,” said Niobe Way, a professor of developmental psychology at N.Y.U. who has studied boys and men for four decades and in July published “Rebels With a Cause: Reimagining Boys, Ourselves and Our Culture.”

Conversely, she said, “Trump is definitely saying, ‘I see you, I value you, I see your masculinity.’”

Ranger Irwin, a 20-year-old Trump voter who works at a Discount Tire in North Las Vegas, Nev., said American society no longer “lets boys be boys.”

“Men my age, from a very young age we were told, ‘You’re not supposed to do this, you’re not supposed to do that, you’re just supposed to sit here and be quiet,’” he said. It’s made being a man “a little bit harder than it used to be.”

And then Ms. Miller actually said it out loud—I almost felt like I was reading a quote from my book!

“In recent years, as social progress has helped women chip away at centuries of sexism, parts of the movement have seemed to dismiss or even demonize men, with phrases like “the future is female” and “toxic masculinity” and books with titles like “The End of Men: And the Rise of Women.” As Mr. Cox noted, a page titled “Who We Serve” on the Democratic Party’s website lists 16 demographic groups, including “women” — but not men.

The ideas show up in broader society, too. American parents, who have long preferred sons, may no longer favor boys, data shows, perhaps because of a sense that boys cause more trouble. The jobs that have been increasing, like those involving caregiving, have traditionally been considered women’s work.

The shifts have left some young men feeling attacked.”

Feminists demean and attack men for being male? Why, you just might be on to something, Ms. Miller!

But the fact that young men are suffering—as young women thrive and live, laugh, love their best lives, crowding them out of the university admissions and out of their jobs—is a feature and not a bug of feminism. Slaying the patriarchy is good, period, and that requires pushing men down the ladder—and away from their natural role as husband and father. The end of men is coming and they know it.

Unfortunately It Be Looking Like Girls Do In Fact Rule the World

But the women are gleeful about the end of men. To them it is a zero sum game and if men are down, they’re going up. They’re having a Brat summer and crushing men underfoot is giving joy.

Ms. Miller also interviewed some of the female Harris supporters she polled. Their reasons for supporting Kamala are basically: she’s brat. 

I can’t tell if this chick is Gen Z or millennial but this is basically the type of female we are dealing with.

Gen Z women score highest on the PRRI “negative emotion score,” which rates depression, anxiety, and loneliness.

Gen Z women seem to see Kamala as a momentary reprieve in their daily darkness. She is a glimmer of hope that naturally appeals to a sad, lonely young woman who can’t find a date but has taught herself to shun companionship and family formation. Even Kamala’s annoying laugh is a plus: at least someone’s having fun, and they can live vicariously through her “joy” and her success.

Kamala Harris a walking, cackling Zoloft pill and they all want to take a bite.

No wonder boys can’t find girlfriends. No wonder these girls are lonely. My theory is that in the absence of any guardrails, best practices, and age-old, time-honored goals, they have been left with only one: do a career and live your best life! And because very few people in their twenties make it big or hit it rich and mostly life is a struggle just to afford a studio apartment with your soul-sucking job, and you’ve been told that’s as good as it’s going to get (since God forbid you find a husband and pool your resources), they are turning to Kamala and progressive politics to deliver meaning in their lives.

These women are making a mistake and will not realize it until much later, if ever. No politician can reach them. No speech can sway them.

The only way to their hearts is to convert some of their favorite influencers, or to get them a man who can romance the shallow leftwing ideas out of their heads.

Barring that, prepare for more electoral chaos and candidates even worse than Kamala.

Girls, I beg you: do not do us like this. It’s going to be bad for all of us in the Kamalapocalypse—and I promise you, once the election night high wears off and the depression creeps back in, you are not going to enjoy the bad times headed our way.
