I know someone who shared this sentiment. As if being highly-supported by the largest 'alt' media (Rogan etc.) and traditional media (Fox, etc.) is in any way rebellious. Never mind being a literal billionarie who got away with fucking kids and continues to shill crypto coins.

yeah, we always joked among my left-leaning friends who were cool with any sort of gender expression or style, pierced and tatted, didn't really judge drug use or aggressive music, didn't value respect for authority that our kids were do their edgelord rebellion phase by being regressive conservatives, and I don't doubt that happens. Ultimately, "what will make people like my mom unreasonably mad?" is a compelling thing for some young people (and some older! I know boomers who seem to like MAGA in part because it pisses people off who they view as stuffy and stuck up).
