Summary

Ahead of the 2024 election, Generation Z has sparked a trend on TikTok, “canceling out” family members’ votes by voting opposite their Trump-supporting relatives. Many young women post videos showing them voting for Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, contrasting with family members supporting Republican nominee Donald Trump.

Although Gen Z voters lean slightly toward Harris, a significant portion supports Trump. With over 47 million early votes cast, polls show a tight race, especially in key swing states.

    If they used Mastodon or Lemmy, those people would be less tense.

    If they had more normies on it, maybe. But Lemmy seems to be composed primarily of the tensest people in the world to me.

      Lemmy has some of the most obnoxious Dunning Kruger shit on any social media platform, especially when it comes to politics.

      Just so! Particularly with election news being the order of the day. Reminds me that I’m on the hook for something I realistically have very little control over.

      I’ll do my bit, but cannot guarantee results.
