☆ Trump's attempt to rally Gen Z continues — with Logan Paul
  + stars: | 2024-06-14 | by ( Aditi Bharade | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
Trump's out to charm Gen Z, and that demographic might already be souring on BidenFreshly convicted of 34 charges of falsifying business records, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee seems to have a new campaign strategy — appealing to younger Gen Z voters. Appealing to Gen Z could work for Trump, especially if one accounts for the "Trump amnesia" effect among Gen Zers. Now aged between 12 and 27 — some Gen Zers may have been too young during his presidency to be politically in tune with Trump-era policies. And Gen Zers who vocally backed Biden during his 2020 run may also be souring on him in 2024. Representatives of Trump, Paul, and Biden didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider sent outside regular business hours.

The newly-formed Sustainable Media Center is intent on stopping companies from using algorithms to push damaging information to vulnerable youths, dark things like suicide methods. Political Cartoons View All 1199 ImagesThe Sustainable Media Center is not alone in this effort. Waituntil8th.org urges parents to not give children smartphones until they reach the eighth grade, and to keep them off social media until they're at least 16. He said he hoped the group could take some dramatic action to give the social media issue greater visibility. The Sustainable Media Center is working with Columbia University to do a comprehensive review of research on the issue, Rosenbaum said.

WASHINGTON—TikTok launched a battalion of influencers in the nation’s capital Wednesday to send a message to Congress: Banning the app would be met with widespread popular opposition. “TikTok is not a children’s dancing app,” said Aidan Kohn-Murphy, a college freshman with close to 300,000 TikTok followers and founder of the advocacy group Gen-Z for Change. “It is one of the most powerful tools that young people have to engage each other and to get civically involved.”
☆ I'm the founder of Gen-Z for Change and a freshman at Harvard. Here's how I balance my day so I don't miss out on the college experience while building my non-profit.

Though the campaign was ultimately unsuccessful, it sparked a passion for political engagement that has since turned into a nonprofit called Gen-Z for Change. It says itworks with local, state, and federal organizations to effect policy change on topics including foreign policy, mental health, and climate. For the first year, Kohn-Murphy said, he spent time building the brand and working on a volunteer basis. He built the platform's infrastructure, created a posting schedule, and started to imagine what Gen-Z for Change could be outside of a TikTok account. A day in Kohn-Murphy's life includes attending classes at Harvard, building the business, and trying to have what he described as a typical college experience.
☆ Gen Z mistrusts everything — big business, government, other people, you name it

With that question, The Washington Post's technology columnist, Taylor Lorenz, kicked off a recent Aspen Institute panel entitled "Can Gen Z Trust Their Elders?" Across the board, members of Gen Z are less inclined to trust major institutions than their elders are. Add all these factors up, and Gen Z is looking more and more like it will become permanently mistrustful. Why doesn't Gen Z trust anyone? According to a report by Edelman, seven in 10 members of Gen Z say "they will fact-check" any claim made by a business or advertiser.
