    How old are you? I feel like I started off being such an edge lord on the internet, and now at 30 I’ve never felt more aligned with left leaning ideologies. My father was pretty left leaning as well.

      I’m 32. Maybe conservative was not the right word to use. I still consider myself on the left side of the political spectrum (even outside of the US). But every now and then I catch myself in situations, where I would have been a lot more idealistic some years ago. Now there are often thoughts like ‘Well, there have to be compromises’. But you made a great point. The shift you go through while growing older may definitely depend on your parents’ political views, too.
