Only 9 percent of Americans younger than 30 have a “very positive” view of capitalism, according to a new CBS/YouGov poll.

That shows a stark generation between Generation Z and older generations.

The data arrives amid a surge in democratic socialist victories across the U.S. — and not just in progressive corners of the country. Florida state Rep. Angie Nixon (D) on Tuesday beat out the more moderate Alex Vindman (D) in the Democratic Senate primary in Florida, a state known for its sunshine, not socialism.

    I am not sure what your game is here. “Oh haha I bet I can get him to believe that I actually agree with him now lmao”? In what way does that benefit me or harm you? This kind of trolling really just drives home the Matt Bors comic comparison.

      There’s just no point in arguing with any of you. You’re certain I’m wrong and you’re right so why would I waste my time trying to present my arguments?

        Well if you didn’t intend to actually substantiate any of your arguments, I don’t know exactly what you expected. “Oh sure bro, your feels-based generational warfare screed totally convinced me that the original article was totally wrong!” Come on man. You know how the internet works. Come with receipts or prepare to be roasted.

        I mean, even if you do come with receipts, prepare to be roasted. But at least in that case you’d have the moral high ground.
