    and to a greater extent, the entire global left

    Podemos in Spain has been successful, Mexico has a leftist president, Chile’s Broad Front was born from student protests in 2011, Brazil has a leftist president and governing party. The NFP in France is the opposition.

      I think I saw that, but I have to take it with a grain of salt. Haven’t there been other studies showing gen Z has been late to a lot of milestones?

      One thing this could be is the minority of young people that have a house basically supplied by their parents, because of high inequality.

        The oldest Gen Zer is what? 27? What milestones are they late to? Especially if they’re early to home ownership.

        Because they seem to be earlier to kids than millennials were, based on what I’ve heard, and marriage just seems to be a fundamentally different thing to many people born after GenX.
