Maybe "becoming conservative" as one grows older means differently to other people. Personally for me, as i grow older, I think it means looking for more stability. Which i can get behind but it doesn't mean i will vote to cut taxes for the rich and austerity. Same as you, I'd stay leftie because i support social justice.

I'll be honest, the older I get and the more I realize just how fucked the whole system is, the less I desire stability lmao

About the time greed, senility and selfishness kicks in.
