I've been waiting for it since the 90s. Keeps getting worse each 5 to 10 years instead of better.
In the past there have always been generational pendulum swings on cultural and political attitudes.
1920s = liberal
1930s-1950s = more conservative
1960s-70s = liberal
1980s-mid 90s = more conservative
mid-90s - mid 2000s = liberal
mid 2000s - present = ridiculously liberal
The swings aren't evenly spread, they can vary from 10-15 years to 30 or more years. But they have always happened. It appears we should be due for a major correction in youth culture and attitudes soon, unless things are fundamentally different now for some reason.
