Good news for the most part. This bit kind of sucks:

While baby boomers and Gen X men and women were largely aligned in their support, those attitudes diverged among millennials and especially Gen Z, the poll found, with more young women supporting LGBTQ2 issues than young men.

I had high hopes for my generation (millennials) and younger. We'd fix everything our parents did... Now I have doubts. "Live and let live" is such a low bar we should all be able to do.

Social media is reinforcing and entrenching our existing views. For millennials that all started as young adults so it mostly reinforced progressive views, for zoomers it got to them during their incel phase (if not earlier) and so it reinforces the views they share with Andrew Tate and the anti-woke crowd.

We're bringing forward a generation that is DEEP into the incel rabbithole.
