Why? You aren’t able to see a spectrum of beliefs? I’ve grown tired of the “you’re either 100% with me or you are a horrible human” language that permeates DCUM. |
I didn’t write that post but I could have, and I am literally a lifelong Democrat. The only Republicans I have ever voted for were Connie Morella, but never after Newt took over, and my own mother. |
I'm the moderate Democrat and it may come as a surprise to the progressives in the county, who live in their own little echo chamber, but most Democrats are actually moderate. We believe in civil rights and reducing inequities. We want everyone to have equal access to good housing, good health, good education, good jobs. But we aren't willing to implode our country to get there. Evidence-based improvements are the way to go. |
+1. Also the spectrum is relative depending on where you live. I’m “moderate” for MoCo and “crazy left wing” for my hometown.
