If by "old school" you mean "everywhere outside of Silicon Valley", then maybe. Coming from a pretty conservative society, I read these sorts of discussions with mild amusement. I may have formed a mistaken impression of the US society, but it seems to me that it tends to bounce from one extreme of political or social views to another.
