Never wished I could downvote before today. Not even the (ridiculous) content of the post, so much as.. this is your contribution to the discussion? Spare us.

I'm sorry it wasn't to your liking.

My point was moreso that in the US at least there is a pronounced difference in political affiliation based on age. Notably, that is an old quote, it just seems interesting it holds up.

In what way does it hold up?

It's saying that a 20-year old conservative is necessarily heartless, and a 50-year old liberal is necessarily stupid. I don't see how either of these follows; I know plenty of young conservatives who care deeply about other people, and old liberals who are very smart.

It's just a lazy meme.

I'll be stealing this one. Die-hard liberal at 20 but experience has pushed me irrevocably towards libertarianism.

libertarians are far more "liberal" than democrats.
