  • Gen Z (especially women) are typically a bit more progressive than millennials. There's a minority of Gen Z conservative men, but it's overstated.

  • Arguably better media literacy amongst Gen Z, likely because they grew up with social media at its peak.

  • Better tech literacy amongst millenials perhaps due to multiple major technical changes during that period and harder to use systems

I'd say though that millenials and Gen Z are actually very similar on the whole in their beliefs, just with differences in degree. There's a bigger gap from both of these generations to Gen X and Boomers. You can see this from the much higher conservative voting rates that kick in from Gen X and later.
