I find it ironic that the far right governments are preaching that young people today are too "woke" when there are videos upon videos and posts upon posts on many social media platforms where people between the ages of 18 and 25 are boasting about how they voted for the far right parties in their countries. And the worst part is, I think it shocked the remainder of young people who didn't vote right wing.
It just really puts it into perspective- or at least, for me in particular- how much society is ruined nowadays, and that you can live your life in the protective bubble and sanctuary of being surrounded by people who have these supposedly "woke" ideas (literally just being supportive of and wanting equality for all people, no matter sexuality, gender, race, religion etc), but no matter how much you think, there will always be a large amount of people your own age that have been conditioned into believing that these right wing parties give them a better quality of life (when in reality it only really benefits rich, white, cisgender, heterosexual men).
It's upsetting, and, quite frankly, some of the stuff that these people have said to others who were trying to inform them of the consequences of their actions, is absolutely disgusting and pathetic.
Shame.
