Certainly there's plenty of polling showing that Millenials as a whole care little for democracy and like socialism, both of which would make them good fits for the former East Germany. I don't think that particular Millenial has gone that far on those issues, but plenty of her generation has.
Why should they care about democracy, when it has failed them at every turn. Capitalism, likewise. That doesn't make them authoritarians or communists. Trump is more authoritarian than any leader we've ever had, and the Millies hate him. I do think they prefer socialism, though they seem ill prepared to understand it very well.
They will usher in a post-capitalism era, or they will become the worst type of wage slaves. At some level, they understand THAT very well.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
