Often wonder what the FReepers’ age percentages are. I expect well over 50% of us are in our 70’s and 80’s.

Hey,

Speak for yourself, 50.

You're likely off. Yes...It's been shown, statistically, that you get more conservative as you age. This Pew study showed in 2019 that 56% of Rep/Rep leaners are 50+ vs 50% for Dem/Dem leaners.

However, politically-engaged people tend to run younger. Further, with Deplorables in the open getting doxxed, it's likely we have more young ones here than we think.

The Millenial bashing that's fashionable doesn't help. But neither does "OK, Boomer.."
