Gen Z adults, along with millennials, were also more likely to identify as LGBTQ than Republican, the survey found.

Imagine your child coming out as Republican. I'd be devastated

Me as a parent: "How do we deserve this????? What will the neighbors think about that???? Republican??? Maybe, it's just a phase."

I know its a funny meme but up until Gamergate, the only way for the conservative party to grow was having more kids (hence the jabs at birth control and abortion).

Unfortunately now they have a chunk of edgybois that have been radicalized just in time to vote for cheetolini.

And it actually has damaged some families.

So its less 'devastated by your kid coming out as conservative', and more 'horrified that your kid came out as a white nationalist'.
