Democrats are targeting "politically homeless" young people by offering them a sense of belonging, conservative activist CJ Pearson warned, arguing that the left is aggressively steering Gen Z toward socialism and DEI."When I look at why young people are at least flirting with socialism right now, I think it's because they're politically homeless.I think they're looking for a place where they feel heard, where they feel seen," said Pearson.Pearson’s warning comes as he launches Next250, a political action committee aimed at organizing young conservatives, registering voters in swing states and countering support for socialism and DEI among Gen Z.
