Tinder's 2019 Year in Swipe®

Introducing The Year In Swipe – a look at the biggest and most talked about topics for Gen Z in all of 2019. This isn’t your average ‘year in review’ wrap report, but a deep dive into the way Gen Z connects. Whether it’s touting causes in their bios or mentioning phrases like climate change and the environment, it’s clear that Gen Z connects over changing the world. Check out our Year in Swipe Video and everything else we’ve learned about Gen Z this year!

Show What You Stan For

Gen Z was more likely to mention causes or missions than travel in their bios in contrast to Millennials who were 3x more likely to talk travel. Phrases like “climate change,” “social justice,” “the environment” and “gun control” topped the list of what Gen Z care about.

A Facepalm Year

If Tinder was any indication, 2019 was a Facepalm of a year. While over 300 million emojis were used in Tinder bios in 2019, one rising star really caught our attention: the Facepalm. ??‍♀️??‍♀️???‍♀️ saw a whopping 41% increase in usage in Tinder bios this year – whether it’s Aunt Becky buying her kids’ way into college or spotting a Grande Latte in Westeros, there was plenty that made us ?? in 2019.

Lizzo and the JoBros

The next generation of daters is looking to connect over everything from female superheroes (Captain Marvel, Lizzo, Elizabeth Warren) and mother nature (Green New Deal, anyone?) to the Jo Bros, and they want potential baes to know about it. These topics popped in Tinder bios in 2019.

Elizabeth Warren Holds Back Tears in Emotional Exchange with Young Voter: WATCH

Elizabeth Warren Holds Back Tears in Emotional Exchange with Young Voter: WATCH

Elizabeth Warren shared an emotional exchange she had with a young voter in Marion, Iowa in a short video posted to social media on Monday.

Asked the young woman: “I was wondering if there was ever a time in your life where somebody you really looked up to maybe didn’t accept you as much? And how you dealt with that?”

Replied Warren, before embracing the woman: “Yeah. My mother and I had very different views of how to build a future. She wanted me to marry well, and I really tried, and it just didn’t work out. And there came a day when I had to call her and say, this is over. I can’t make it work. And I heard the disappointment in her voice. I knew how she felt about it. But I also knew it was the right thing to do. And sometimes you just gotta do what’s right inside, and hope that maybe the rest of the world will come around to it. And maybe they will and maybe they won’t. But the truth is, you’ve gotta take care of yourself first and do this.”

I was asked at a town hall “if there was ever a time in your life where somebody you really looked up to maybe didn’t accept you as much?” Here’s my answer: pic.twitter.com/ariYPwvWQr

Elizabeth Warren Says She’ll Reverse Trump’s Transgender Military Ban on Day One

Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday released a detailed plan on the rights of service members, veterans, and military families, which includes a vow to reverse Trump’s ban on transgender troops at the opening of her presidency.

Tweeted Warren: “A Warren administration will protect the rights of LGBTQ+, women, Black, and Latinx service members. I’ll reverse Trump’s shameful ban on trans service members on Day One. My administration will protect veterans and family members of serving military personnel from deportation.”

Politico adds: ‘”I’ll reverse it on the first day of my presidency,” she says in the plan, insisting “the only thing that should matter when it comes to allowing military personnel to serve is whether or not they can handle the job.” That also means “providing all medically necessary care related to the health of transgender people” such as transition-related surgery, according her “Keeping Our Promises to Our Service Members, Veterans, and Military Families,” which is being released ahead of Veterans Day.’

Elizabeth Warren Reveals How Her $52 Trillion ‘Medicare for All’ Plan Will Be Paid For

Elizabeth Warren Reveals How Her $52 Trillion ‘Medicare for All’ Plan Will Be Paid For

Elizabeth Warren today revealed how she’ll pay for her $52 trillion Medicare For All health care in a comprehensive plan released on Friday. Read the plan HERE.

Politico reports: “The plan relies on an expected mix of tax increases on the wealthy, deep cuts to military spending and payments to doctors, projected savings from a more streamlined national system, payments from employers who would no longer have to provide health care to their workers and — the heaviest lift — comprehensive immigration reform. The proposal was outlined and evaluated for the campaign by several prominent economists and former government officials.”

Warren explained the plan on Twitter:

Health care costs are rising and crushing families. And a serious diagnosis can financially ruin a middle-class family even if they have insurance. We let private insurance and drug companies profit from that pain. Enough. We need a system that reflects our values.

— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) November 1, 2019

#MedicareForAll finally brings true choice to the health care system. The choice to see the doctor you want, to get the prescriptions you need, pick the job or start that small business you want without worrying about where your health insurance will come from.

— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) November 1, 2019

Let’s get to the math! (All backed up by independent experts and economists.) First, we’re going to rein in the waste, inefficiency, and corporate profiteering by insurance and drug companies. And we’ll bring down out-of-control costs.

— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) November 1, 2019

How is it paid for? Well, if you’re not in the top 1%, Wall Street, or a big corporation—congratulations, you don’t pay a penny more and you’re fully covered by #MedicareForAll.

— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) November 1, 2019

We cover the remaining $11 trillion largely with taxes on big corporations, Wall Street, and the top 1%—and enforcing the tax laws we have now. Add in a targeted cut to a Defense Dept slush fund and that’s it. You’ll find full details in my plan here: t.co/N0Ai7TayJD

— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) November 1, 2019

I am fighting for #MedicareForAll. I have the only detailed plan to pay for it. And we are the only Democratic primary campaign that has laid out the true, full costs of any health care plan, Medicare for All or otherwise. I look forward to others doing the same.
