Category:Leftists who turned right with age

If you're not a liberal when you're 25, you have no heart. If you're not a conservative by the time you're 35, you have no brain.

When people, media and political parties who were left-leaning got tired of their left-leaning ways. It can happen in two different ways: it can be a sudden, or slow rightward turn over the years. This phenomenon can also involve getting deep into religion (usually Christianity), being involved in reactionary movements and right-wing identity politics, or free-market absolutism. Many of these people often turn out becoming fascists and dictators (such as Mussolini and Putin).
