In today’s politically charged climate, the role of young people in shaping the future of our society has never been more important. Despite the stereotypes of being apathetic or lazy, recent polls show that Gen Z is among the most politically engaged generations yet.
With issues such as climate change, racial justice, and economic inequality at the forefront of political discourse, Gen Z has been at the forefront of demanding change. From participating in grassroots movements to organizing protests and advocating for policy reform, this generation has shown a strong willingness to take action and make their voices heard.
But can Gen Z truly change the world through their political engagement? The answer remains to be seen, but the passion and dedication displayed by young people in recent years certainly suggest that they have the potential to make a significant impact on the future of our society.
As we continue to navigate the challenging political landscape, it is clear that the power of Gen Z’s collective voice cannot be underestimated. By staying informed, getting involved, and advocating for the issues that matter most to them, young people have the opportunity to drive real change and shape a better future for us all.

Gen-Z from Bangladesh removed their corrupt government.
Love the series you've been doing and the story you're telling. Thanks for analyzing it from all these different angles. Please keep putting out these pieces
Absolutely not. lol
Programe a Gen-Z-ombie mind for a aim and they will jump on it.
No, they won't. But one's reach should always exceed one's grasp
Relying on the Gen Z to save you? Bad plan. Another bad plan. Israel has spoken.
don't forget the gen z of israel who are fighting bravely in gaza and proving the older israel generation that they too can defend their land in this era of tiktok
The discussion in this war is absurd. First.
Israel acted selflessly to live in peace with the Palestinians in Gaza. It was more than a decade ago when Israel itself relocated thousands of individuals living in Gaza with lethal force from their homes to follow the agreement, which obligated the Palestinians in return to stop any kind of aggression towards Israel. The Palestinians had the chance to build a safe, functional, and prosperous livelihood. But the first thing the Palestinians did in return was to elect a government that enshrined the goal of destroying Israel in their constitution. The elected government followed through with its promise. Since its founding, thousands of rockets have flown into Israel. Dozens of civilians died in terrorist attacks. Millions of aid funds – intended for civilian purpose – were misused to build rockets, tunnels, and other nonsense. The crimes committed on October 7th like raping women, killing children, or kidnapping a baby, was Humus has been doing for years. Secondly. Israel behaved more humanely in this conflict than any other conceivable party in any imaginable conflict. It allowed Palestinians to work in Israel, receive medical care or even migrate into their country. During war, they warn civilians where their military is operating. They admit collateral damage and apologize for it. They saved Sinwar’s life giving him a lethal brain surgery. They treated the daughter of Haniyyas daughter for her complex disease in Israel. While Humus was building rockets and tunnels with all the foreign aid, Israel supplied their civilians with free water and electricity. The situation is clear. In no other conflict the responsibility for the suffering has been so one sided and clear – in no other conflict have the perpetrators been held accountable so weakly. The same goes for any related conflict: Hezbollah, Houthis, etc…the more peacefully you try to live with them, the more visible their genocidal intents becomes.
People with voice and power who claim to reject war have the duty to unequivocally name the culprit of this war and do everything in their power to eliminate them. Everything else is responsibility for the resulting suffering and will extend it.
F**K FALSETINE 🇵🇸🤮💩🚽💀

All young people have wanted to change the world. They historically don’t show up to vote though. Hope Gen Z continues to show up
