TikTok might very well be helping spread this sentiment, but this generation has lived their entire lives in the post-9/11 era and all of the attendant fear culture, American quasi-imperialism, Snowden disclosures, etc. We invaded Afghanistan as they were starting to be born, almost 2 decades later this very weekend we're negotiating with the Taliban, again, for peace. Is it really that difficult to believe that a good chunk of them might have ended up with politics that reject a hegemonic US that hasn't seemed to do much for them, while still carrying on foreign entanglements that stem from an event they don't even remember?
