So many men who will never get a girlfriend and not understand why. Social media influencers were a mistake.

Why does everything appear to appear at +15 across the board just before 1990?

My guess (based on no hard facts, bust purely speculation): This statistic is for the age group of 18-29 year old. Young people tend to be more liberal and grow more conservative as they age.

There might also be a political or economic component, but i think age is the primary reason why these graphs mostly show a liberal bias for the samples.

Rise of Streamers. Uneducated man childs giving advice to teenage boys, while “living the life”…

Imagine an angsty teen with blue balls hearing the opinion on women from his idolized, expensive car driving, pumped up tattooed narcissist how to pick up girls every evening.

That shit is toxic populism in times with lots of uncertainty about the future.

Streamers are 2010s, not 90s

Yes… 14 years or maybe 10 with the rise… 90s are the parents.

That’s why there are so many incels conservatives and more lesbians, the numbers talks from themselves.

The important thing here is to know how did they measure young people’s political ideologies. I wouldn’t expect it was self-perceived as currently, people have a hard time admitting they are conservative compared to admitting they sympathize with a conservative party.

If it was determined by a questionnaire, it would be interesting to see what questions were included. Maybe the questions weren’t well planned and that’s it. Maybe they equalled feminist takes to progressive liberal ones, which is something that can be discussed. In this case, I would be picky about the origin of the graphics.
