    Perpetuates the false dichotomy of a linear political spectrum of either liberal or conservative and that in and of itself is one of the reasons for these trends

    the graph explicitly takes 1 dimension of the spectrum to look at it in isolation. This is exactly what single graphs do best.

    which this survey completely ignores, conveniently

    have you looked at the source of the graph?

    Many men can barely afford to live, let alone even think of the joys of previous generations such as home ownership, having a family, or travelling.

    this is true

    Conservatism grows when people are struggling.

    also true

    Meanwhile the news is full of victory after victory for women, so of course they’re going to support the status quo more.

    I don’t get this argument. “Supporting the status quo” is literally what conservatism is about, no?
