"It's just a burning memory..." -Al Bowlly
Gerontocracy is a form of 
oligarchical rule in which an entity is ruled by leaders who are significantly 
older than most of the adult population. The ancient 
Greeks were among the first to believe in this idea of gerontocracies; as famously stated by 
Plato "it is for the elder man to rule and for the younger to submit". However, these beliefs are not unique to ancient Greece, as many cultures still subscribe to this way of thinking. This belief has been very common in 
tribal communities as the lack of writing meant that people relied on older people to seek knowledge much more frequently.
Often these political structures are such that political power within the ruling class accumulates with age, making the oldest people hold more power than others. Those holding the most power may not be in formal leadership positions, but often dominate those who are. In a simplified definition, a gerontocracy is a society where leadership is reserved for elders.

Eisenhowerism - I still like Ike!
Brezhnev Doctrine and 
Post-Soviet Left - Откопаем Брежнева, будем пить по прежнему...
Tribalism - Respects me.
Paternalistic Conservatism - Back in my day, a man cared about his fellow man.
Right-Wing Populism - He promised the return of the good ol' days.
Frenemies
Anarcho-Primitivism - Also likes the good old days but goes a little too far. Also, I wouldn't have been able to live longer than 50 without modern healthcare.
Alt-Lite - I'm all for kids embracing traditions, but not this crap.
Necrocracy 
- Like me but even older, and you make me feel uncomfortable.
Neoliberalism - It was better when Ronnie and Maggie were in charge, but Macron decided to lower my pensions all of a sudden.
Enemies
Progressivism - Darn hippies... (Bernie and Pelosi are really great though)
Nazism - We fought to liberate Europe from your newfangled evil idea. Wasn't I younger than you at the time though?
Alt-Right - The only "redpill" I need to take is some Tylenol after listening to these kids' internet gobbledygook.
Transhumanism - Darn kids and their stupid gadgets!
State Liberalism - What the hell? I'm not getting euthanized! Get outta here before I give you a good cane beating, ya whippersnapper!
