The Not-So-Woke Generation Z
The Not-So-Woke Generation Z
The same young people once derided as liberal snowflakes are moving to the right.
Summary
Gen Z’s reputation as a reliably progressive generation has been challenged by recent U.S. election results, showing a noticeable shift toward conservative voting, particularly among young men.
Many young people struggle with financial security, psychological safety, and optimism about the future. Trump tapped into their anxieties of a frightening world that’s worsening.
Issues like inflation, financial stability, and safety now rank higher than traditional progressive causes for many young people.
Additionally, conservative influences from figures like Joe Rogan and family ties to Gen X parents may have nudged Gen Z rightward, reflecting their complex and evolving priorities.

Complex and evolving priorites
Incels, what will they prioritize next?
Incoming Subsidy for Tesla Sex Robots
Honestly, if the weird "men's movement" and incels actually got their way on having great robot sex wives, and they thought that meant all the uppity real females have now been "replaced" or outsourced or whatever, would they stop being so angry? I do have to wonder....something tells me they'd still be butthurt about stuff.
If sex robots were actually a thing...
There is a certain segment of incels that would probably be very happy with this, if it was at least somewhat socially normalized, they would probably be fine.
Thats the segment of incels that are more driven by just having no access to sex, already more or less fine with being social recluses.
Granted, that could be accomplished right now by just giving them fleshlights or something, combined with less social stigma around masterbating.
I really do think thats a non zero % of incels.
But there's also a likely much larger % of incels that are more driven by a sense of revenge for all the times they've been rejected, driven by a need to have a living thinking thing to boss around or torment, an active hatred.
Those incels would not be sated by sex robots.
....
Whats more financially / pragmatically / realistically likely in my estimation is that if an actual sexbot can ever be designed, you'd just end up with more, legalized robot prostitutes in brothels.

I think it may take a while before normalized, but then, I remember how quickly it went from extremely rude and annoying for someone to take a call on a cell phone, to constantly happening, all the time, everywhere....some norms can change pretty quickly.

This is exactly what I was thinking. I think a lot of them are just replaying their middle school/high school experiences and want to take that out on women. Maybe some kind of Westworld scenario might suffice for another percentage of them...

I have not looked, but I would bet more than a few companies exist that have this as their business model.

AFAIK all that exist are possble life sized dolls with basically internal fleshlight cavities, some talk a bit as well.
Sex is actually a very complex and delicate manuever from the POV of a robot designer.
If the female sexbot suddenly jerks or collapses, it may have just snapped your dick in half. Penile fracture and groin muscle tears are real and extremely painful and debilitating.
A humanoid robot would also probably weigh double or triple what a same sized human would weigh.
If you had the tech required to make a reliably safe sexbot, that would be the same level of tech to just actually make humanoid robots that can say, work in a McDonalds more efficiently than a human.
Its a pipe dream (pun intended) for now.
Honestly, I think if they had something that was safe (enough? - and we are talking about putting autonomous cars on the road in greater numbers, so in the scheme of things, a malfunctioning robot might be extremely painful, but maybe not deadly) in the bedroom, they would get snapped up. Add in the ability to carry on a conversation - and I hear some people are already falling in love with chatbots - and cooking/cleaning, I think that'd be enough for a lot of these guys, assuming the stigma gets blunted over time.
Hey, if it brings down the temperature for this bunch, I'm all for it. I doubt many of them are too complicated - something that lets them bust a nut and makes a sandwich for them and remembers nearly every detail about them might go pretty far...
