Haven't changed anything drastic. Always was a liberal even more so than my father. Must say both my parents were basically immigrants.

My mother was always as apolitical as they come. She didn't care about politics the least bit.

Must say that both my father and myself were Democrats. Yet more realistic about what democracy stands for.

You either believe in democracy in its fullest sense or your not really a Democrat. Capitalism is simply has no place in democracy. Capitalism and Republics belong to each other.

@Thinkerbell no you stop dodging and start addressing the reasons.

This is over with otherwise.

I will drown you out with inanities.

Because of your refusal to address my replies which actually explain EXACTLY WHAT I INITIALLY MEANT.

Capitalism and Republics belong to each other.

Even in the very same year as the declaration of independence. The constitution itself wasn't completed.

I showed you why!

"I will drown you out with inanities."

You have been trying to do that since your very first comment.

"Capitalism is simply has no place in democracy."

"Because of your refusal to address my replies which actually explain EXACTLY WHAT I INITIALLY MEANT."

I addressed every one of your replies.
And each time, you tried to grasshopper away, posting yet another piece of nonsense.

"This is over with otherwise."

Indeed it is. I will leave it to any interested readers here to judge for themselves what your hodge-podge of internal contradictions and other nonsense really means.

In my late twenties I went from Libertarian party to being a leftist. Why: I started going to Libertarian meetups and the only things they ever wanted to talk about were taxes. I was more invested in social liberty. But they thought taxes and free markets were the important things. So I started looking deeper into those aspects of Libertarianism and found them to be contradictory in that free markets paired with private property rights ultimately leads to supply side monopolies and thus having different masters but masters all the same. I came to understand that Capitalism taken to extremes was anathema to personal freedom.

I have had smaller shifts in the meantime. I thought Biden was going to be terrible. Aside from his terrible decision not to take a hard stance against Israel's genocide, and his interference in the railroad worker strike, he did much better than I expected. But a lot of that was putting good people in place and getting out of the way. Whether he got out of the way because he trusted them or because he was sundowning I don't know. But it was working...

Never really. I admire all political spectrums.
A little over a year ago I went from being a hardcore, Trump supporting, Christian nationalist to now being what that group would call a liberal.

I don't like to call myself that because I still don't agree with everything liberals say. I might just be on the "liberal side" by virtue of no longer being a Christian nationalist.

But that's beside the point.

It happened due to a lot of internal changes. My personality, my priorities, the way I interpret the world around me. Too much to sum up in one answer.

I've been more of an anarchist since I can remember understanding politics.

I never have. I'm a Democrat and always will be.
I've gone further to the left as I'm getting older.

When I change to Republican then back to Democrat.

Don't think I have. My beliefs have stayed in the same ball park.

When I was a kid, I was apolitical, then when I was 15, I began taking some interest in politics purely out of intellectual curiosity.

That was when I discovered I had some right-wing leanings, which gradually shifted to more left-wing leanings.

These days, I'm now a centerist.
Sutten · 41-45, F
Never, I have no interest in politics at all.
I change my mind sometimes about those voting for various reasons... Especially these days. I'm disappointed in a lot of stuff and tired of the deflections.

Wealthy men and women in over priced suits sitting in positions that dictate our very REAL lives shouldn't be turning us as humans into the monsters we've (mostly)all been raised to never become against EACH OTHER.
My feelings about "illegal" immigration changed with the understanding that those complaining the most about it are racists, descended from settlers who initially stole the very land they claim as theirs.

I grew up in arkansas and have met both bill and Hillary bill clinton, you could disagree with him on everything and still have a calm, decent conversation hillary.If you disagree with her about anything, she'll find a cliff, you can jump off.

I went from being a Democrat 20 years ago to realizing within the last decade that the Democrats are moderate conservatives, essentially playing good cop bad cop with us all.

At publishing time, it was learned that Jane Fonda is overjoyed that Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of NYC.
