Maybe both. All I know is as older generations die off it becomes more acceptable, like tattoos have lost their taboo. Like a lot of things it seems the harder you try to cap it the more underground it goes and eventually becomes "cool". Only nerds played videogames when I was a kid, now its mainstream as can be. Perhaps what we're seeing is a trend of young people realizing the the government does nothing but stomp on the individual and stifle their rights, and they want nothing to do with it. We don't always notice because they would rather be left alone and stay relatively quiet leaving us to think the future is all niggers and commies because they reeeee the loudest and think twittard is real life.
