Conservatives never learn anything. It’s part of why they’re conservative in the first place. They don’t grow, expand their minds, or learn from life. They hit a point where they harden and ruin relationships.
Many, many who vote conservative, used to be liberal. Haven't you learned that most people turn conservatives as they get older? After growth, and learning more about life and politics, people tend to turn conservative...
The writing on the wall is plain and simple.
Through experience, people can perceive what politics actually effect their life/family/bottom dollar. The 40yo dumbass has seen president's come and go. The 20yo dumbass might not even have voted for a president yet. But which dumbass probably has a better formed opinion?
I am 44 and went from conservative to liberal. My parents always told me I would switch as I got older and that was wrong. What I learned was conservatives want three things: money, controlling people, and being allowed to say the quiet part out loud.
What amazes me is conservatives are "Christian" yet don't want to provide health care to people. I don't remember Jesus in the bible healing people then asking for payment later.
Everyone is dynamic and unique, and no one's experience is the same as another's. Of course. I speak in generalities. Personally, I grew up identifying as conservative, then around 23, as my political opinions changed, I considered myself a liberal. That lasted about a dozen years, but now, again, I consider i probably fall more into the conservative camp.
