Likely, but about on par with other claimed liberals here in NY, given my experiences the last few years.
I considered myself to be extremely liberal, but the new left would view me as far right. I feel politically homeless and I hear a lot of the same sentiment from peers.
- 18pfsmt 7y agoI was raised as liberal Republican (pro gay-mariiage in the 80s, marijuana legalization in the 90s, etc.), and it's been very disheartening to learn I have to call myself an American conservative because I strive toward the principle of individual freedom (i.e. liberty, from which the term 'liberal' is etymologically derived). I can tolerate anything but violence.
