Because older generations tend to be more conservative than younger generations, it looks like people get more conservative with age.This is, thankfully, untrue.People get more progressive with age.It's just that previous generations get a little left behind. The jump between generations is bigger than the progress that happens within people, giving the illusion that older people become more conservative.Some good news for once. 😊https://brilliant.org/lesson/the-overton-paradox/#politics #demography

so, if science debunked the joke (I can't read the article, it's hidden behind a javascript wall), what takes the place of "being conservative is a degenerative condition"?

@lxo you don't get all the graphs, but at least you won't javscript your machine https://paste.hostux.net/?4be38ed538777bd6#Df8o14faAqpdZytzdRGXPrDC59JPHuc3ACu78pEeyxkC

it's even worse: it not just plain JS, it demands "webassembly". it's not assembly in whatever way and I turned it off at compilation because running binaries or whatever that is interpreted from the net is a bad idea.

@selzero I remember my mom asking me why I care that other folks get access to health coverage and education. I explained that I don't want to store clerk to sneeze over the produce they are setting up in the supermarket, or that I want the people who'll take care of me when I'm old and sick to actually know what they're doing. She got it.

@jbqueru I'm an atheist, but karma is real y'all. What good is it to live in a world where I have more and people around me are miserable.

@tomcapuder @jbqueru Cities that have a high wealth disparity also have a high crime rate. By taking from society to enrich themselves personally, people end up unable to walk down the street, and have to create gated communities.We live in the world we collectively make.
