The Silent Majoity...sort of.
Manage episode 478201881 series 3006349
This week on Uncolonized, Gavin Stephens and Daniel Grant dive into the media’s favorite zombie narrative: the “silent majority.” Every election cycle, pundits and pollsters act like it’s a shocking new revelation—but this trope is as old as Nixon. We unpack the latest reincarnation of it, featuring the supposed shift of white male Gen Z voters to the right, particularly towards Trump. Are they really shifting—or just revealing who they’ve always been?
Plus, in our Patreon-exclusive episode, we get into a viral story about a woman who dated a string of far-right men. What she discovered about their views, emotional development, and how they perform masculinity says a lot about the culture we’re in.

Topics covered include:

- Political amnesia in mainstream media
- Why the “silent majority” narrative is a smokescreen
- Insights from dating the far-right
- Emotional repression and conservative identity
