I think it depends a lot on the origin, but not on the generation. Because information and experiences are what make you develop your mind to leave disbelief aside, and develop character, ability to question, malice, insightful cunning and many other factors. And those places away from where true information does not arrive, is where you usually find more people with a reduced mental capacity, and end up believing anything.

I think that an example of this could easily be, as socialism deceives the lower class, the working working class (the plebs) telling him "we will distribute the wealth" or the other classic. "We will remove the rich, and we will return them to the people" which is the result. mass people supporting these socialist policies, why? Because they are ignorant people, people devoid of information, and therefore credits capable of growing anything.
