It is quite something how people are overcomplicating the 2030 generation

Lately, looking through political communities, it seems like people sometimes interpret issues in an overly complicated way. I saw a post on Clien, and it went like this:
Whenever the topic of why the 2030 generation votes for "that side" comes up,
people start talking about fairness this and the kind of society they dream of that~~~ and suddenly it turns into a political philosophy seminar.
But thinking back to my own 20s, I rarely voted with such grand intentions. I barely participated in previous general or local elections after I got to know Lee Jae-myung. Before that, I didn't participate in any elections except for the presidential ones. For the record, I voted for Park Geun-hye, mostly because she appeared on TV often and was portrayed in a positive light.
The criteria I used to vote in my 20s were simply: the person I saw often on the news, the person the media spoke of either positively or negatively, things I heard from people around me, the atmosphere at the time, or even just deciding who I disliked more.
It is only after starting a professional life that you begin to weigh various factors. It's not like I had a blueprint of my ideal nation and economic system in my head during my 20s and chose a candidate based on that. But seeing how people over-analyze and interpret the perceptions of those in their 20s, I thought there was truly no answer.
Shall I tell you? Even if you do everything right 100 times, if you had appointed Yong Hye-in as a minister, the 2030 generation would turn away. Stop thinking so complicatedly.
However, because people who talk about politics for a long time tend to gather together, they seem to attach too much meaning even to an ordinary person's single vote.
To the statement "I'm voting for the People Power Party because I hate the Democratic Party,"
I wonder if it's really necessary to go as far as asking, "Then what is the utopia you desire?" They just hate them. Why do people think so complexly that the administration collapses?
You can vote just because you dislike someone, or because of one or two specific issues, or because you are influenced by the atmosphere around you. A person's political choice is not always a sophisticated result.
Rather, I feel that by interpreting the choices of the 2030 generation in such a complex manner, we might be missing what ordinary young people are actually seeing, hearing, and feeling.
Sometimes, it feels like highly politically engaged groups analyze things so seriously that they make the issues much more difficult than they actually are.
