Anecdotally this hasn’t been true for me. I spent my 20s barely getting by. In my 30s and early 40s I’ve had a series of lucky breaks that have enabled me to move into a much higher paying job resulting in luxuries like home ownership, retirement money etc. and if anything I’ve become more liberal.
I also don’t have or want children so maybe that factors in?
Ok, call it whatever you want, I’m not really into labels. For context I believe in universal basic income, socialized healthcare, prison as a tool for rehabilitation instead of punishment, strong government regulations for corporations, high speed Internet access as a state run utility, and a bunch of other stuff that I don’t feel like listing out.
