Thats actually opposite for me. I remember being more conservative in my 20. I remember watching people like Amazing atheist, armored sceptic, shoe on head and some others that I dont remember. Now in my 30, I have actually softened up a lot and got more liberal views now.

Photo is replaceable by mine, hunched over the laptop when the Internet is down. Text in the Photo the same.

Hello fellow 38yo non-conservative person!

Some do and some can see the issues of the current economic systems.

If anything, that “oh this is an inevitability” line of thinking just made me want to submit less.

I don't think I have seen this but the reason we see this effect is murder. The richer you are the older you you manage to live. Either you are too poor and misadventures get your. Or the things that you have progressive beliefs about will get you oppressed and maybe murdered by society. I don't think it is intended. It could easily be so however, it is just a slow oppression and crushing of everyone in society.

40 and still not anywhere close.

It's all nice and all, but where does the picture comes from?
