Do we have any evidence that they are actually voting and not just filming videos they hope will become popular without really going to vote?
Voting participation is public record. I don't know when it's published.
Participation, yes. Who, hopefully never.
Yet another reason to vote against Trump as if it was needed.

Beautiful.
Shit like this makes me hopeful and honestly that worries me. The universe is cruel.
This feels like a trauma response, haha. I'm right there with you.
The cruel thing is that this is the best humanity can manage and we burned all of our get out of jail free cards to get here.
Can't believe I didn't think about this becoming a trend sooner
What else can you expect from a tiktoker.
I see plenty of gen z being influenced by toxic nonsense on outlets like Youtube, as well as doing some of the influencing. I also know people from Gen Y, Gen X, and boomer age range that hate donnie with a burning passion and would vote for a potato over voting for donnie...
So the idea of framing this as just some generational thing seems kinda moot, at least in my experience. But for some reason, the notion that a set of people merely born between two sets of dates are a monolith is all too common...even as we reject similar framing for almost any other demographic measure...
I think it's important to note that although there is definitely a trend of young men being radicalized through the "manosphere," young women are so overwhelmingly progressive/liberal that gen z is still significantly more progressive/liberal overall than previous generations.
I sure hope so, but I have a feeling that some cons are already working the long game on that, too. Like getting Youtube to push more extremist content to women. Or TikTok "influencers" slipping in the magabrained talking points in between the other content...

MSN hijack link
Oh? I've been seeing it more. Is there a way to know and get the right source? I kinda hate MSN.
What @SanctimoniousApe@lemmings.world said
It does state the source of the article though (this one says The Independent UK), and you can click the 'jump to' icon to go the proper site-- but it won't be at the proper article, just the main page.
But just in general-- If my query returns a lot of MSN hijack links, I just go back and put -MSN in the search.
Edit: screen of page
Highlight the entire headline, and perform a search on it. Even if you can't discern the true source, there ought to be plenty of better sites to link to.
Apparently the browser I use just doesnt work with MSN at all, so thats been the best way to know what's the wrong site at least.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
