  • Is this the sort of thing that’s going to get Gen Z excited about progressive politics? I doubt it. I’m no 17-year-old, but when social media is filled with videos of masked immigration officers indiscriminately attacking protesters and separating children from their families, I don’t think what young people want is a “progressive content hub.” I might be going out on a limb here, but I think what Gen Z wants is for their elected officials to do something that actually helps their constituents. Does this feel like the right time for a Substack essay?
