It's wild to love a politician because of the fear and hate he inspires in your enemies, and then go all surprised Pikachu when those strong emotions translate into action against your principles.

What possibly could have spurred these three groups into greater voting amounts this time? Now let's see, one data point is in 2018, one data point is in 2022, almost like it implies something big happened between those numbers. Now, I can't remember any really big news stories happening before 2018, so it's probably not that.

But, if say, for example, speaking purely hypothetically, if there had been some global event that radically altered the plans of every high-schooler in the nation, causing them to see their education (and expected/projected futures) just fall apart in real time? That might cause some big movements. And it's a good thing no unarmed Black people were executed in the streets (or their own bed) by the State without a trial, judge, or jury, for crimes that do not incur the death penalty, causing mass levels of political action and organization, or then these numbers would make sense. And we should above all other things be thankful that a life-long right for women wasn't weakened and put into national jeopardy during the summer right before a midterm election. Things might get really spicy if that were the case.
