no, but "democrats fall in love, republicans fall in line" is a saying for a reason.

i mean there's also a saying for that. if you're not a liberal when you're young, you have no heart; if you're not conservative when you're old, you have no brain.

it's normal for people to become more conservative as they become older, gain families, etc.

They didn't in Pennsylvania this year. 625k Republicans sent in mail ballots, and currently Trump has only 578k mail votes. A lot of Republicans voted for Biden. I also seriously doubt zero Democrats or independents voted for Trump, so the number of Republicans who voted for Biden was probably a substantial percentage of the Republican PA mail voters.

Such a sad way to lose, going out because your voters didn't have the fortitude to hold the line once more.

The numbers line up because it's a generational thing. I'm pretty sure most studies show individual ideologies remaining stable over time.

If there's one lingering thought I have, it's that its potentially going to take a long time before I can forgive the Republican party for unleashing this irredeemable monster upon us.

It's just not going to be now. I can't do it now.

While I understand the whole thing about becoming more conservative as you age because thats how my life has played out, Trump and the Republican Parties refusal to even say no to the guy has somehow pushed me back to the left again.

Im not sure how it works, but Ive found myself more excited about a future Bernie (too old I know), Warren, or AOC Presidency than I am about any Republican.

it's a superficial saying so obviously it's not 100% accurate but i do think there's some truth to it.

just take this board as a case study. on the right, libertarian muffin immediately jumped on the trump bandwagon when he was running and it took neocon sephyg about 2 weeks to jump on the bandwagon. meanwhile, on the left, 99% of people despise biden.

What it is is that the people who tend to be more left wing (the poor, minorities, activists, natives, generally oppressed populations) tend to die younger than populations who tend to be more right wing (the wealthy, suburban, white, capitalist, bourgeois) leaving the impression that older populations trend conservative by nature, when in fact, the older voting population is just made up of the conservative members of their generation because all of the leftists have been killed, imprisoned, stripped of their rights, or died as a result of their economic circumstances, wars, stress, medical issues, any number of things.

Completely false. Biden is the quintessential Democrat. The majority of the Democrat party wants to vote for people like him the rest of their lives, even people in our generation.

I don't despise Biden. I just don't think he's going to fix much of anything. And not just because of Mitch McConnell. He will at least stop us from being the laughing stock of the world after the Fascist Clown. And maybe he can decriminalize marijuana on a federal level (or at the very least stop the DOJ from going after them). If he at least takes us in the right direction, that'll be okay.

I know that leftists really wish they were counter culture, but you're not. You'll vote for Bidens your entire life. You'll vote D down ticket your entire life. Leftists are Democrats along with the centrists.

Libertarians definitely do not vote straight R down ticket, but they are still on the "right" along with the Rs.

I do know some genuine communists who are straight up Maoist, but that's not common or even a serious philosophy. It's like ancaps on the right.
