From everything I’ve seen, it’s the kind of the opposite. The drift towards the right is because they want to be left alone and have fun. It’s sociopath freaks like him constantly browbeating normal people that’s driving them to think neutrality isn’t an option. He’s projecting his own bloodlust onto dudes who want to play video games and party. The frat guys getting involved was a reaction to the tents and disturbances on campus. I was at university during the Obama years. No frat dude was hyping up McCain or Romney. They had Halo and Call of Duty and attractive people in movies to distract them. Sydney Sweeney has the power to sway the election.

While understandable, I think they are also mistaken if they think that the right are free thinkers that will leave them alone… I suppose that’s why many go libertarian after their conservative phase. 

Is funny many consider Trump as some sort of rebel figure when, by many accounts, he is an abusive parent that abused his sons to sycophancy. Maybe people are attracted to the self serving cynicism over the self serving “virtue”, but both paths end the same way, funny enough.

More importantly, males always poll more "right" than women and therefore any population. Younger people are always "left" compared to older. And all of this is based entirely on which political party they support.

Here's your "swing hard to the right" visualized:
[Image: PP_2024.4.9_partisan-coalitions_4-03.png]

Here you can see how they're swinging hard to the right by doing so less than their predecessors:

Thankfully it's hard-set and nobody will ever change their views:

Time preference easily explains why older people would be more conservative, they have lived experience which makes them unlikely to trust the unknown as much as younger people. This is why you don't typically worry about adults, outside of certain exceptions like Nothing Loud, wandering off with strangers.

One reason it's important to convince people of things rationally is to overcome the bias against change. Although it shouldn't be my job to educate you about this when you could just show me basic human decency.

Not saying that force powers aren’t dumb, but that people genuinely have different perceptions of Star Wars depending of what films you grow with, for better or worse.  So, to me, Darth Vader is inherently lame because it is obvious that the dude in the costume can barely move and the prequel arc paints him like a dunce.

darth vader isn't lame, he can turn into a scorpion and doesn't afraid of anything

There’s this old anime called Welcome to the NHK. A minor character is this miserable shut in asshole who spends all his time online and is abusing toward his sister. He depends on her for everything. Money, food, shelter. And she indulges it out of guilt or responsibility. Through her own story she stops coming home. He stomps on the floor and yells for days. Eventually basic necessities take over and he has to go outside to eat. Literally crawls to the nearest restaurant. He doesn’t have money, but the owner lets him eat if he does some work. Some time later you see him happy and healthy riding his bike to deliver food.

I think some psychologists or sociologists or some logist would call it learned helplessness.

Gunn got in trouble for disgusting, edgelord tweets that he had already publicly spoken about and apologized for, years before controversy. Ava was actually being inappropriate with a minor.

They're very different situations. If Gunn was caught being inappropriate with minors in a DM or something, it's very unlikely that he would have been hired by DC or rehired by Disney.

Not very well since the central theme of South Park is tolerance.

They just say they did and now they're better so you should listen to them even as they tell you they used to be stupid, didn't do any critical thinking and just said whatever they thought would be popular.

Personally, I believe Mr. Beast is committing fraud and enriching his friends as part of a phenomenon of "masking" behavior.

Allow me to educate: His financial malfeasance allows him to pass within and gain protection from the in group. Really, he identifies with being a morally virtuous and anonymous citizen. However, he fears what the consequences will be if his exposes this true, core identity. As a method of self-defense, he must continue to cynically (appear to!) enrich himself and his friends without limit. This will continue until Mr. Beast is able to deconstruct his...ah, fuck it.
