Zoomers seem very democratic and would probably dislike Bush for the War on Terror. As for Homelanders... well, the ones I know pretty much agree to whatever Zoomer-cusp Millennials say... Homelanders here are probably taught to dislike the War on Terror.

After reading Strauss and Howe's works it actually makes a lot of sense why we do this. Artists have always been followers rather than rulers for the most part. If you look at the G.I. and older Silent relationship in the 50s, aside from exceptions like rebels, they seem to get along like friendly pleasant neighbors. At least that's how it looks like to me, I may be super wrong.

Things definitely changed in the Awakening, when Silents chose sides; conservative G.I.s or liberal Boomers. So in the 20...50s(?), a lot of us Homelanders will finally stop listening to everything our great older siblings say. I'm probably gonna be one of them because screw sameness and conformism. But for now, I'll continue clinging to them and giving them all my support, because they deserve it for now. So yeah, I agree with:

I don't see the point in siding with people just because of age range. Why do I owe anyone my loyalty just because they were born in the same year span? I don't believe in pure democracy because pure democracy leads to worse things. As for rebelling why do I need to wait to be some part of a movement to do what I want? Why do I need to side with people who would probably generalize me with their stupid parents in order to do what I want? I don't have time for all that nonsense. I will side with no generation because neither side has my interests in mind. As an outlier all I can do is side with me and be my own best friend.
