This is my biggest pet peeve statement in political arguments, because it bases the morality of a political position solely on the passage of time, regardless if the opinion is right or wrong.

It's also used by people who believe in the notion that society is always progressing and becoming better through passing of time, so if you hold an "outdated" position according to this argument, you must be an "old dinosaur conservative living in the past."

Keep in mind I'm fairly liberal, but this argument by many on the left has always rubbed me the wrong way, and is not a great way to convert opponents to your position.
