Yes but not too young to be affected by the subsequent laws and wars. Some of these kids have only known our country in a state of endless war.

- carterklein13 6y agoYeah I have a younger sister who is Gen Z and I'd say it's more to your point. All she knows is the rhetoric that the United States has its back against the wall and, like a caged animal, is scared and frightened and trying to bite the folks trying to help it. I think the notion of American Exceptionalism died with Gen Z, in my opinion, so much so that it can't even be taught in schools. Granted, I'm probably speaking from a point of privilege as my family is from a very urban and developed part of the country which is traditionally more worldly and not so US-centric (NYC). But, I clearly remember what I was taught in middle/high school as a younger millenial, and what my sister is being taught now is totally different in terms of ideology.
