40s through early 50s are like the only like sane people in the US, right?
That kind of like second half of Gen X in particular, although we've never had a Gen X president, Kamala Harris would have been a boomer too, technically speaking.
But there are people who are like, okay, we grew up and we worked hard and we still felt like more or less the American system worked for us.
I think people wrongly or rightly that are half a generation younger don't have that experience.
Also, we should talk about, as much as I think that in certain ways the media is an overrated storyline, how people consume their news.
You look now at what's happening at CBS and Paramount or CNN or whatever else.
We had an era where you had very centralized news delivery systems under TV and radio.
I know I sound like I'm dating myself.
The Internet's been around for a long time.
But when you have three or four major networks...
that have a huge amount of editorial control over the message.
And I used to work at the New York times, right?
You know, when I first got there, you would still have like the page one meeting every day where it's like, we are the people, the editors in your times, like deciding like what is news and what's not.
And now it's become very decentralized.
Obviously social media plays a role in that too.
I think the evidence is pretty decent at like,
Phones and social media affect youth satisfaction a lot.
You also have a culture, I think, among liberals where it's no longer a stoic culture.
It's a culture where maybe you might express your grievance.
Ironically, maybe AI will change this a little bit.
