Notability is not in doubt[edit]

I don’t understand why anyone would consider this page for deletion. He is the nominee of a major party for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. He is certainly notable. Natsfan2020 (talk) 07:39, 24 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP! The fact that this page is even being considered is absurd. Jake Hicks (talk) 00:43, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Unconditional support"[edit]

Someone pls provide a link that says Maxwell supports "unconditional aid." Foreign military sales to Israel is conditional, indeed the MOU is itself conditional.

Either article spells out verbatim Maxwell's position or verbiage remains neutral. "Unconditional aid" isn't a known platform. This is rhetoric and editorializing. 79.163.225.72 (talk) 00:01, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What is the confusion here? All three cited references spell out the subject's position on this matter. Show some effort before coming to here to complain and insert your own "editorializing."

"The threat to Israel from them is far too grave to condition the aid."^[1]

"I do not believe that we should condition aid to Israel."^[2]

"In a candidate questionnaire solicited by Jewish Insider, however, Frost distanced himself from measures that would penalize Israel, rejecting the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement as “problematic” while opposing calls to condition U.S. aid to Israel."^[3]

Ethnicity[edit]

There appears to be a wiki-wide consensus, for some reason, that this guy is a Cuban. Why, exactly, is this the case? Right there at the top it says that Frost is the son of a "Puerto Rican woman of Lebanese descent" and a "Haitian father." He was ADOPTED by a Cuban woman and a white man from Kansas. You cannot be adopted into an ethnicity. And even if you could, that would make him White-Cuban, not Afro-Cuban. Why do parts of this page and other parts of the wiki consider him to be Cuban? 50.227.112.186 (talk) 23:16, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Gen Z starts 1995[edit]

To say Maxwell Frost is the first gen z in congress isn’t correct and is miss information the Wikipedia page states mid-late 90s and many sources including McCrindle, Jean Twenge and others start gen z at 1995

you can argue that it starts 1997 but again this wouldn’t be fair to say he’s the first since sources vary and Maddison Cawthorn was born 1995 and calls himself gen z.

funny how this article sounds similar to the ones being made about Maxwell Frost https://www.buzzfeednews.com/amphtml/davidmack/madison-cawthorn-gen-z-congress-youngest-north-carolina 49.191.59.20 (talk) 12:48, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple WP:RS refer to Frost as (1) a member of Generation Z and (2) the first Gen-Z member of Congress. These sources include The New Yorker, PBS News, The New York Times, The Guardian, NPR, Vanity Fair, The Washington Post, The New Republic, and many others. When your block is over, please gather some reliable sources that claim Frost is a member of another generation. Novemberjazz 23:55, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So because the media says it you think it’s true?

Cawthorn came before him and 1995 can be considered gen z even the official Wikipedia page says this @Generation Z 49.191.53.187 (talk) 14:27, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Generation Z 49.191.53.187 (talk) 14:28, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Generations are a marketing gmick[edit]

Maddison Cawthorn was born in 1995 this makes him a millennial gen z cusp according to the offical Wikipedia page yet you are saying Frost is the first? it doesn’t add up.. Generation Z 49.191.53.187 (talk) 00:03, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
