MODERATORS
Survivorship bias was/is a huge factor in "you get more conservative as you get older". Poor people die young.
Old people also break this out when they can't defend their positions on the merits.
Me at 18: “This Bernie guy seems great! We just need the wealthy to pay their fair share, and we can fix education and healthcare and everything will be better!”
Me now approaching 30: “Let the streets run red with the blood of the bankers. Death to America, the Great Satan must be destroyed. Please president Xi, liberate my people. Climate Stalin, unleash your wrath upon this land.”
