I couldn't tell from a quick read of the article (and couldn't find an English version of the study) but it didn't seem like it offered democracy and authoritarianism as the only options.
As (an older person) who leans anarchist and has lived through many problems with democracy I agree with the concerns of these young people. However, my alternative isn't authoritarian rule.
Yes people can dispute the practicality of anarchism, or grossly misunderstand it, I'd disagree with them, but point being there are good if not idealistic alternatives to democracy.
