@hellomiakoda same with me.

Actually, the whole “you get more conservative as you get older” truism was based on the fact that throughout the lifetime of the boomers, The West and especially the US was becoming so wealthy from the spoils of World War 2 that basically anyone of a certain age was incredibly likely to become more wealthy as they got older, and the more wealthy you get, the more greedy and detatched from reality you get, and thus the more conservative you get. But Gen-X and later are experiencing poverty at an ever-increasing rate, and so fewer and fewer people are becoming conservative as they get older.
