Meanwhile, Millennials, including their late cohorts grouped by Pew as Gen Z or Zoomers, are behaving like civics, just as the authors predicted, and social media involvement is the best example of that networking tendency of civics. And so is their more-liberal outlook on the need for collective institutional power, a necessary corrective to the neo-liberal Reaganomics they grew up in.
I would agree, except that "collective institutional power" is exactly the opposite of "liberal". But hey, if you want to call President Trump's more authoritarian tendencies "liberal", I guess you can use the terminology how you like.
