More people need to read books. Our country was founded on a violent revolution against an unaccountable government that they didn't feel was working for them. Want to see less violence in the world? Maybe don't take away every non-violent mean towards just outcomes because it only leaves one choice

I wonder what age they start to lock into the Fox bubble
I think a factor explaining young men becoming more Republican is that rightwing media has become "cool" in a way it wasn't even a decade ago. Rogan, Barstool, even the X platform itself -- guys in their 20s and 30s marinate in this stuff and so do their friends
