American Millennials, are there many that are redpilled?
I was on the bus back from town at like 6 P.M on St.Patrick's day. I was drunk but not wrekt.
I spoke to an american girl with her 2 friends about the upcoming election.
They said they are democrats and wouldn't vote for Trump.
I asked why, they started stating all the stereotypical nonsense about Trump, You've all heard it all countless times yourselves.
So I explain why he want's the wall, how he is a smart man who turned his small loan of a million dollars into billions, how he really cares about America.
There was a nigger ahead of me on the bus with his back facing me, every-time I mentioned that Trump isn't a racist, he turned his head over his shoulder and kept staring at me with his salty, beady nigger gaze. So I just explained what's going on with the media distorting his image, and I was nice about it too.
They said they're not really into politics because they understood that I knew more about the election than they do which was embarrassing for them as Americans. They asked me why I'm so interested and I obviously told them the US presidential election affects more than just the US, it's a pretty big election, and that they really need to make an informed decision because their votes count.
So then I stumped the absolute shit out of them about Bernie and Clinton as well, talked about how Bernie just wants to cuck his nation away to the niggers, [ had to cuck it down a bit because there were many people watching this happen on the bus and I felt like they weren't too happy about me, plus that nigger ]
and how Clinton is.. well she's Clinton, a stupid cunt who lies non stop and who will start a war.
They choked so hard and were embaressed, my friends who aren't redpilled to the max and don't really care about any of this shit were even laughing at them because I crushed them. I felt pretty juicy asserting myself on that bus, no cuck spoke up against me. Felt fucking fantastic.

or here faggot. don't pretend like we are ANY BETTER than our neighbours. it is a really stupid thing that most Canadians think americans are dumb when the reality is we are about the same, retarded.
>>70237706
After talking to enough people about this election and hearing "I don't like any of the candidates, but Bernie seems like he's honest lol" 100's of times. I've realized that I truly believe democracy is a mistake, these people are allowed and have the right to vote, and it's actually very troubling.
>>70237706
I always wonder why people speak up about politics and know nothing. They always say, "I dont follow much" but then why the fuck did you respond earlier bitch.
No. The only redpilled millenials Ive met are gamers who play games which include lots of voice chat with foreigners like WoW pvp or LoL. They dont know anything about politics either, but arent sucked into the ultra progressive never offend anyone pool
>>70238957
Yeah, the Constitution is a great piece of work and it was made by an elite group of people that had the people's interest at heart. It stands to this day. Imagine of the people voted to make up what's in the Constitution. We'd be fucked.
>>70237706
Trump is very unpopular among young Americans:
"In a recent USA Today/Rock the Vote poll, respondents under 35 said they would pick Hillary Clinton over Mr. Trump, 52-19."
"In a national survey led by the Republican pollster Frank Luntz, 1,000 people 18 to 26 were asked: “Out of today’s major political figures, who do you like and respect the most?”
Thirty-one percent chose Bernie Sanders, followed by 18 percent for Barack Obama and 11 percent for Mrs. Clinton. Mr. Trump scored highest among Republicans, at 9 percent. In USA Today, Mr. Luntz called it a “a chasm of disconnection that renders every prominent national Republican irrelevant with the voting bloc that could control campaigns for the next 30 years.”"
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/24/upshot/lasting-damage-for-gop-young-voters-reject-donald-trump.html?_r=0
You need a bigger sample size, OP, and you'll find that a lot of young people are politically engaged and in general they're leaning very strongly left at the moment.
>>70239520
The vote doesn't matter anyways. The electoral college chooses the president. Voting is just to give people the illusion of choice.
>>70238186
We elected Obama. But you elected Weed Man. I'm pretty sure the Canadian electorate is just as cucked as ours.
>>70238957
Bernie is honest. It's just that he's also a fucking socialist lunatic.
>>70238369
true for 2 party systems, in Europe there are often many political parties and people are not lifelong voters, they switch based on who has the most effective policy plan and agenda. Of course, the average European historically is much better educated than the average North American, so this doesn't come as a surprise. Speaking multiple languages, having a good idea of geography, history, the sciences, tends to lead you to making critical decisions around political candidates.
Ever since Wilson pushed you into WW1, America stopped being a nation and became a surrogate for world domination by international bankers. The industrialists of the 1800s were replaced by the monetarists that created the European conflicts and stood to benefit most from them.
It's fairly obvious for the past several hundred years, there have been multiple conspiracies at play all working towards destroying European culture and civilization from within and without any mercy towards the people.
You have been dumbed down to such a degree it shames even me, an unengaged monogot living on a far flung island among trolls.
>>70238957
Well, Bernie does seem like he's a helluva lot more honest than the likes of Cruz or Hillary. That's why I believe him when he says he's a democratic socialist and want him nowhere near the oval office. What I do want is off this fucking ride.
>>70239492
Young people in the US, age 18-26 are either in college or in ghettos. Both are rampantly liberal, something the democrats have done an excellent job in controlling.
Universities actively repress republican ideas and push the liberal agenda. I kept my mouth shut in uni because I knew all the people around wanted muh free shit and to take from the evil rich man. There is no discourse there, and any attempts at it will be ridiculed.
Republicans aren't hip. I knew barack was going to win back in 2008 when he entered the stage on a skateboard. Trump at least brings the memes.
>>70239021
Virtue signaling. It's like wearing the jersey of a specific sports team that popular in the area. You can have absolutely no idea who is on the team, their history, their record, etc. But it signals to anyone else around that you're "one of them", and therefore should be accepted.
I've transcended the red pill and have officially died inside
>>70240548
Kek
>>70237706
I never realized how red pilled I truly was, and how against the grain I must have been. Looking back at my public speaking class, everyone was 9.5/10 blue pilled. In my biographical speech, I WINGED a speech on Chuck Norris. I had just read his autobiography, and the two niggers scheduled to give their presentations that day BOTH didn't have it ready. I offered to do mine on the spot, 3 weeks early, as long as I got a 95 on my visual aid (which I didn't have), all 10 pts for dress (I was wearing shorts and sandals), and 95 pts on my bibliography (Which I also didn't have). I got up, blew everyone away, reciting dates and accomplishments. felt great.
My informative speech was that 'competition breeds success' and I gave many examples of how kids who play sports perform higher in every measurable aspect of school, that in the animal kingdom, overall fitness is predicated on competing for mates, and those who are 'socialist' are doomed to die (as some have been). I gave many other examples with sources on how making people compete for something ends up with a better overall outcome.
I didn't realize at the time, but it was essentially a capitalism v socialism speech.
>>70237706
I triggered a table of socialists so bad at a friends birthday party that they left.
Fucking faggots. The funniest part of the whole thing was if they were to try and engage me physically it would have ended poorly for the 4 of them.
Skinnyfat faggots who cant grow a beard (meanwhile i am well bearded)
Its funny to see these faggots in real life.
>>70240261
This is way too tin hat. In the early 1980s, Republican ideas were hip and popular among young voters. Reagan promoted optimism that led everyone to believe in a better future and personal enrichment. Unfortunately, Trump now is running with a negative message: "Make America Great Again" is implicitly saying "America suck now and I'm mad about it." This message appeals to the embittered and not to the optimistic. It's why Trump has more old supporters than young ones.
I think you're a bit too conspiratorial in talking about universities too. The trouble with the political right at the moment is that it's riding a wave of populist anti-intellectual sentiment. There just aren't very many good leading intellectuals who are advocating for conservative viewpoints. Part of the problem is that most right-wing parties have embraced single-issue politics (abortion, guns) and not positions with a lot of intellectual depth to them. It means that there just isn't a lot of energy around conservative ideas on campuses at the moment. The positions that are doing best on campuses range from centrist liberalism to radical socialism to anarchism or libertarianism. It's not a consensus and not a conspiracy, but there isn't a lot of interest in right-wing views. I wish it was different, but people like Trump are not going to inspire a new generation of right-leaning intellectuals. Even the alt-right stuff here appeals to people who want simplification (are we all redpilled yet?) and not complex ideas.
>>70237706
ha ha awesome ! i wish i could've been on that bus (well not really) to laugh my ass off at them. those dumb girls were probably in college too, most americans don't know one thing about politics i'm glad you exposed those schills

Make America great again was one of Reagan's slogans though
In aggregate no, particularly in urban centers Americans are very liberal and influenced by media and consumerism.
In rural areas it's a little different... but a toss-up between redpilled and redneck.
Individuals with good minds are out there. Good luck finding them. Thank you for your missionary work Good Samaritan.
>>70241404
except liberals at universities will literally cry harassment if you so much as write trump in chalk on the sidewalk
you will not be happy in a university setting unless you keep your fucking mouth shut in the face of retarded liberal opinions
I don't know about millennials, but POST-millennials (first-time voters) want Sanders - NOT Trump or hillary.
http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/gen-z-bernie-sanders-answers-the-how-policy-making
>The Iowa caucuses tonight will turn on a number of factors: Will the unseasonably warm weather hold up? Which campaigns have the strongest ground game? And will turnout be closer to the lackluster result in 2004 or the record finish in 2008? For Bernie Sanders, it could also come down to whether his supporters, particularly his disproportionately young fans, turn out.
>“Well, everyone talks about the younger voter,” said David Stillman, a researcher who launched a national research project this year with his son Jonah studying young Americans, including their priorities in the coming elections.
>“Everyone just assumes they’re millennials. What we’ve uncovered is there is a whole new generation that started in 1995 – Gen Z, so the leading age is 21 … [who are] voting for the first time. So Jonah and I came down to Iowa to see what’s on their mind. What are they thinking about when it comes to politics?”
How angry are you about this, /pol/?
>>70244253
This is exactly how Weed Man came to power. Don't let this happen to you.
>>70243576
Good point. Didn't know that, desu. It just feels to me like Trump isn't creating a legacy. He's fuelling people's rage and anger, which is good for a short while, but I don't really feel the positive vision that will inspire a whole movement of younger people, like Sanders is doing. Just very different styles of politics. I really wish conservative politicians would work more closely with universities rather than stigmatizing them or treating them as the enemy. Conservatives need to work out how to market better to younger people and how to sell people a positive vision of what they want so they don't just end up with a rabble of butthurt faggots, which is roughly who Trump's supporters are.
>>70244253
I voted Trump, you cuck
>>70240097
Nah, I play lot's of games on international servers with characters named after Trump. Everyone has basically the same amount of retards. There's a reason all the western Euro countries let their leaders shit all over them. They're just as brainwashed as the manatees on hoverrounds we got here.

>>70237706
Godspeed, Anon.
Sadly, being a millennial myself, I'm only just now learning about politics, since they don't properly teach that shit in schools (at least not the ones I went to).
>>70237706
Probably a lot of people like us out there who either only share their views online, or think that they have a personal defect for not being a true believer in SJWism and carry on in quiet desperation because they mistakenly believe they are the only ones.

here in America Lite you just need to look at who we keep electing.
Our millennials are just as woefully uninformed, but also have that unique Canadian smugness about "not being Americans".
The LITERALLY HITLER meme exists here too
>>70238957
I don't understand why people think that just because something effects them they have the right to vote on it.
Should we let small children have a vote in how their family is run? Should we let the lunatics run the asylum because it's policies affect them? What would special education classes for retards be like if they had a vote in the class curriculum?
Likewise, teenage school dropouts who smoke weed all day and rap about their favorite prison inmates shouldn't be voting on policies that affect Fortune 500 corporations.
>>70238186
Says the country that elected Trudeau
>>70237706
Welcome to the home of the Big Mac. The majority of people here won't even bother to vote, and the majority of the minority that does will vote out of ignorance, emotion, or a single issue or two. Political talk is often frowned upon by the masses because it's too divisive and people can't really articulate their position very well. I bet you could have said that Trump is a Democrat so he must be good and they wouldn't even say anything about his political party, but would still just hate him because the media and facebook told them to. Hope you had fun in our great Republic!
>>70240261
I just wonder how many people as a percentage are like I was in college. A starry eyed liberal at 18, who started to doubt the liberal narrative when it became apparent that opposing viewpoints were actively being suppressed, causing me to seek out people with different points of view on my own via the internet (I wouldn't even become aware of 4chan til a few years later, so I had to depend on shit like Daniel Horowicz's Discover the Networks back then). I can't be the only one.
>>70237706
>Are there many [American Millennials] that are redpilled?
That depends on what you mean by many. Millennials tend to be liberal. According to pew, 41% of millennials hold views that are "mostly liberal" while only 15% hold "mostly conservative". I don't know if you consider 15% "many" or not.
>>70240261

Calling bullshit on this. Here is what conservative millennials have actually been saying.
About which republican candidate they support
>Josh, 19, from Massachusetts, said he was drawn to Cruz's unapologetically conservative platform but was supporting Rubio, whom he viewed as a more electable candidate.
>"I really don't like Donald Trump, I don't think he has good politics whatsoever," said Victoria, a Marco Rubio supporter and student at Elon University in North Carolina, who added that Trump is "very conceited."
About what they would do if Trump is nominated
>"I could never go in there and actually vote for [Trump]," said Abby Titus, a freshman at Hillsdale College in Hillsdale, Michigan. "I'm not sure what I would actually do."
>"I would not vote for Trump. If we as Republicans nominate someone who espouses what he believes, then I think that we deserve Hillary Clinton," lamented Nick Vaughn, a student at North Carolina's Wingate University.
>"I would write in 'Jesus,'" speculated Tavia Vitkauskas, also a freshman at Hillsdale College. "There'd be no hope, it'd be over."
>"I'd probably either vote for the Constitution Party," Josh from San Diego said, "or write in somebody cool like my dad."
>"I might have to ride out the Trump thing and pray to Jesus," speculated Julie Havlak, also a Hillsdale College freshman.
>>70248100
At least your white friends are voting for their best interest, even if the girls are doing it for the wrong reason.
>>70248565
It's basically the same among my friends. I have a smaller group that actually discusses stuff and doesn't let popular opinion influence them, for them I thankful.

Generation Z
Born: 1995-2012
Coming of Age: 2013-2020
There are no precise dates for when the generation starts and ends; most researchers and commentators use birth years ranging from the early 1980s to the early 2000s.
I guess there's a number of different opinions here after looking a bit.
Meh, guess it's shit show classifying the generations.

>>70247696
Yeah young college-age millenials aren't very informed, they're easily manipulated by media, things like Facebook memes and Buzzfeed. They get their "information" from stupid memes like "Birdie Sanders". That's how they form "political opinions".
>>70238556
I remember for my junior year history teacher talking about WWII. Not 10 passed after starting discussion on hitler that some edgy "oh I'm so sarcastic" manlet compared him to Trump, teacher spent 15 minutes laughing and comparing him to Trump too. This country is dead and is never going to recover.
>they started stating all the stereotypical nonsense about Trump

german millenials don´t know fuck all about politics. i only know those who don´t give a fuck in general and get really pissed if someone talks about politics, some leftist zealots and those who cared once but now have to focus on something else because its fucking them up mentally.
>>70249631
"My" data is at least from people who spoke on record and thus are more than just anecdotes. Some polls show that Trump is popular among republican millenials, but in general millenials don't like him.
>In a hypothetical Clinton v. Trump contest in November, voters under 35 would choose Clinton by a crushing 52%-19%, a preference that crosses demographic lines. Among whites, she'd be backed by nearly 2-1, 45%-26%. Among Hispanics, by more than 4-1, 61%-14%. Among Asian Americans, by 5-1, 60%-11%. Among African Americans, by 13-1, 67%-5%.
>According to a new poll released by Monmouth College, just under half of young adults surveyed said they have an unfavorable opinion of Trump. Only 17.5% said they viewed him favorably.
>The disparity is even more pronounced when when isolating Independents. Of the young Independents polled, 62% had poor opinions of Trump, compared to 14% who viewed him in a positive light.
Pic vaguely related. It may explain why many republican millennials don't like trump.

People are paid to cart people to voting centers, I'd imagine there are some people paid to get urban communities to register to vote. Registering for the vote is pretty easy and around election season a lot of places will have the paperwork available and tell you to register. Uni dorms do this and some community centers will also. I wouldn't doubt the forms are available for people getting welfare or at least mentioned. Also pretty sure it's pushed in public high school.
Hell I went off to college and my parents signed me up to vote behind my back. I didn't want to vote because I was so disgusted at the corruption of Washington state's gubernatorial election between christine gregoire and dino rossi - 3 recounts and the smallest margin where gregoire finally came out ahead. Lots of ex cons and dead people voting too from what I heard. But again, I didn't even have to sign up myself, parents did it while I was in school.

Conservatives absolutely do need to market better to young people, and stop treating them like the enemy, and trump also is definitely feeding on the anger people feel at being told they are bad for being white/straight/religious. That said, it isn't trump supporters that are rioting in cities or blockading interstates or calling bernie or hillary racist.
between bernie and maga I sort of understand what you mean; bernie has set goals: healtchare/living wage while trump has "great", but what exactly does that entail? a wall? The fact is that what trump is saying is that the US has some serious problems. Trump is saying we are not great right now, but we have a chance to fix that. Bernie is glossing over whether we are great or not but is saying: look we can all have all this awesome free shit!
One of those two viewpoints says we're going to need to work hard because we've got a problem, while the other says hey look free stuff! It's a lot easier to see positive in presents than work.
