... as opposed to saying "my family and friends" and "subjectively" ... because I meant "this generation" (on the macro level) and "objectively," not "my friends and family" and "subjectively."

I also never said that there weren't parts of the country that bred different perspectives. In fact, I referenced that fact in the post that you responded to.

It's like you responded in the wrong place or something lol.

Anyway, here's where my point derives from.

"Generation Z – diverse and on track to be the most well-educated generation yet – is moving toward adulthood with a liberal set of attitudes and an openness to emerging social trends.

On a range of issues, from Donald Trump’s presidency to the role of government to racial equality and climate change, the views of Gen Z – those ages 13 to 21 in 2018 – mirror those of Millennials."

"They share millennials’ progressive ideas on social issues, but are more likely to support radical policies, such as reparations for descendants of enslaved people. They’re more likely to believe the government should do more to help people. They believe in advocating for the Other, except when the Other is a bully."
