Both episodes are being framed primarily as a communication failure: The youth, especially Gen Z, it is argued, needs reels, hip vocabulary and Instagram bonding. The CJP was not a registered political party. The BJP’s Gen Z outreach promos, for example, mimic youth vocabulary. Polished attempts by those suddenly wanting to cosy up to Gen Z through performative youthfulness risk registering as forced or cringe. Trying to woo Gen Z with better content is the low-cost, low-risk response.
