Topic | I feel like modern liberalism and the Democratic Party have left me behind |
Mead 11/10/17 5:42:44 PM #1: | Always considered myself liberal minded but it seems like the party has become so extreme to the point of actually perpetuating things that I stand against like racism and fascism. I've lost a few friends simply because my views don't perfectly align with theirs and they're intolerant of different ideologies. I mean I'm pro gay marriage, pro choice, in favor of gun control, and believe people are more important than the needs of a corporation. But because I still have questions about some social issues and choose to be skeptical rather than blindly believe everything I'm told about identity politics, I so often feel in conflict with the party that I used to feel represented my views. I'm sure this topic seems like annoying blogfaqs, but like so many other people I just hate the political field nowadays. It's just extremism on both sides and it seems like common sense is lost in the middle. --- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mead "I'm Mary Poppins ya'll!" ... Copied to Clipboard! |
