Let's not stigmatize older Americans. I turned 80 this year and don't watch Fox News, I am not angry, nor have I become susceptible to culture wars and conspiracy theories. In fact, many of my friends in the octogenarian and septuagenarian ranks are likewise, while many of our younger acquaintances are completely wacko. Perhaps the social media so popular among younger folks is their version of Fox! "Just sayin," don't judge us by the wrinkles and farts.

I'm not stigmatizing any group. I'm just reviewing the survey/polling evidence and voting patterns. The age cohort group which polls as the biggest "offender" in those aspects is the 50-64 age cohort.
