Zoomers are growing up with social media, horrible diets a nihilistic cultural atmosphere and zero economic prospects. The lockdowns have only made it worse. This leads them to a doom and gloom mentality. I see this in many people I know.

Now, this doesn't necessarily lead them to the dissident right but it leads them away from mainstream conservatism. Either to the far left non-binary black hole or to the dissident right, which also has a nihilistic part to it in the sense of wanting to destroy the current system and take revenge on the elites. Zoomers don't feel any attachment to this current model of society and have a higher tolerance for radicalism, their lives simply suck and this is evident from the proliferation of severe mental illness.
