    I think it’s not so different from millennials. A 22 year old white man from Missouri is probably going to be exactly the same as all of his ancestors. A 22 year old in Oregon, same. I think this whole “we are getting more conservative!” Thing is more of a cope than an actual statistic. I mean, how could you even accurately measure that statistic? I’m not going to fill out a form online describing my political beliefs lol. That sounds sketch af.

      Fair. Any poll is absolutely suspect. The right-wing shift in national politics is absolutely noticeable though. Objectively…I think Obama was a little less “right” than Dick Cheney (by a little less I mean like an inch/inch and a half) but at the same time here is dick cheney now endorsing democrats and trying to get George W. Bush on board. But you could be right.
