New research on Gen Z and their views on democracy ⬇️
NEW: Just 6% of Gen Z say they actually want a dictator – not over half, as has been recently claimed.
Our study finds only a very small minority of 13-27-yr-olds really feel this way, when their views and interpretations are tested with different questioning approaches 🧵⬇️
