@jik@federate.social The phenomenon of (white) Boomers getting more conservative as they aged is exaggerated, too. They were always majority-conservative; it's just that when they were in their 20s they liked sex and drugs and didn't want to get drafted. The majority of them still voted for Nixon; it was just a slimmer majority than their elders. There's also significant correlation with race: younger generations are less conservative because they're less white.
