It’s so obviously a red/blue issue for politicians. Decriminalizing marijuana is literally part of the Democrat’s party platform. Of states that have implemented marijuana legalization, only one has had a red legislature (and that was Alaska, which is an outlier in so many ways). Of course, many conservatives people support decriminalization and/or legalization, but that doesn’t mean it’s a policy priority for their representatives. Also, the claim that the US left has completely removed individual freedoms from their political agenda is definitely not true. Reducing incarceration, reducing immigration enforcement, and making it easier to vote - which are all also part of the Democrats “party platform” - are undoubtedly about individual freedom.
