Over the past few decades, the number of Americans who identify as religiously unaffiliated—often referred to as “nones”—has grown rapidly. In the 1970s, only about 5% of Americans fell into this category. Today, that number exceeds 25%. Scholars have debated whether this change simply reflects a general decline in belief, or whether it signals something more complex. The research team wanted to explore the deeper forces at play: Why are people leaving institutional religion? What are they replacing it with? And how are their personal values shaping that process?
should be happening with gen z and alpha too, but gen z has more right wingers than previous generations, due to significant propaganda.
it’s not all propaganda. there’s significant instability. gen Z can’t find a job. the old ways don’t work for them anymore. “right-wing” just means “without a plan to trust in”, IMO.
I always wonder what made millennials so left compared to every generation before and after.
the younger generation were considerablly more right wing than thier gen xers or boomer parents. gen z became mroe right wing due to people like tate, incel-ism, right wing grifters preying on these groups.
milleneals at least grew up with pickup artists, it was mostly fringe until gen z made it more mainstream.
Propaganda cultivated and disseminated by Boomers.
Decades later, the root rot is still Boomers.
