Millennials are definitely conformist, and more interested in security than in freedom. They are politically conscious and more interested in science and tech than in spirituality. So far, S&H are correct.
But I cannot call Millennials "socially conservative". Many of them wear very provocative clothes, have a lot of tattoos, cohabit without marrying their "significant others", and think that using porn and illegal drugs is nothing wrong. MeToo and "cancel culture" don't seem to impact those behaviours a lot.
Old Christian West was definitely too socially conservative, and the sexual revolution was intended as a correction, though it soon become a harmful overcorrection. Maybe things are heading to get more balanced now, though I imagine one Apollonian awakening more is needed to attain the balance.
