It's not about cohorts, it's about being human. Humans as they age tend to get more frightened and don't like change. Not all humans, but most.
It's one reason I understand the dreadful necessity for death, younger people are more likely to make and adopt change.
You'd think that, but the general age with which people tend to trend conservative is currently met by millennials, and they're not turning conservative - if anything they're becoming slightly more left wing.
And I shun your necessity of death. Crispr will enable me to see 1 billion years (I hope god I hope I hope)
