    I’m in my early 40s, and I’m more of a leftist today than I was when I was 18.

      This is the truth. I didn’t have the education to articulate how I could tell that the world was fucked up when I was eighteen. Now I do, and I’m fucking furious at how dumb, hurtful, and hateful this world is. It doesn’t have to be this way and never did.

      Amen.

      I thought there might be some truth to it as a kid. As a 40-something, I realize it was just selfish dicks trying to rationalize their own shitty “fuck you, I got mine” worldview as maturity somehow.

    AFAIK turning conservative in your 30’s only happens when you own property, and don’t fully understand how you made it.

      I own a property and don’t fully understand how I made it but I’m not conservative. Fake it till you make it baby.

      Also I’m aware generalisations always have anomalies, maybe I’m an anomaly.

      Helps if you grew up with a low but consistent daily dose of lead.

    “You’ll get more conservative when you start paying taxes.”

    I have rubbed a bunch of faces in this one as well.

      I apologize, I thought I crossposted it to another meme group. I was going to argue with you, but it looks like this one’s on me. Should I delete it?

    I mean, that’s arguably incredibly conservative. “The old ways” and all that.

    I started voting conservative at 18, because my parents did and I didn’t know who to vote for (we have compulsory voting in my country). Swapped to the other side late 20s and now mid 30s I can’t see it changing anytime soon.
