Re: Generational differences when it comes to how you feel about politics?

(Anonymous) 2024-05-21 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
While I don’t disagree that politics and self are entwined, it is a very recent paradigm shift. I’m from the generation before you and my father from the generation before you father’s. I’ve been gradually shifting over the last ten years towards politics and self being entwined, but even five years ago I would have said they aren’t. It was gradual and the result of being in constant contact with people who believe that and, to an extent, mimicking them. I’m far from the only Gen X-er like that but overall most of my generation still seems to view them as separate.
As for my father, he and everyone I have ever known from his generation, tend to view it both ways but not in a positive way. They’re separate. Unless a person’s political beliefs are contrary to their own, in which case the person is a bad person overall.
My mother was an exception to that; most of her friends had polar opposite political views but it wasn’t an issue. They just didn’t talk politics and everything was fine.
