oh i know there's some trying to unlearn the old and embrace the new, and that it's not as impossibly rare as some people think it is, and that's why i said it's from my personal experience. i have one of those cases myself in my life. it is still by and large the exception for that population because accepting being wrong/accepting change that goes against what you knew for a large chunk of your life is not something humans are conditioned to handle without resistance (thanks generational trauma), and for those one or two cases, i have maybe 20 or more other non-conservative family members who don't even realize they actually do hold conservative beliefs and oppose anything that goes against them or tries to make them see those particular beliefs are conservative.
