The way they do whatever they want with quotes drives me up a wall.
I
I used to consider myself a Democrat because I believed in a lot of the core values the party stood for—things like social justice, equal opportunity, and a fair system for everyone. But over the past few years, I’ve felt increasingly alienated by the direction the party has taken. It feels like the Overton window—the range of ideas deemed acceptable in public discourse—has shifted so far that what were once considered balanced, mainstream ideas are now labeled as outdated or, worse, intolerant.
I’m all for progress, but some of the ideas now gaining traction seem so radical that I can’t get on board. Policy shifts that seem to prioritize ideology over practicality seem the norm; it’s like the focus has drifted away from improving the system we have to tearing it down entirely, and that’s not something I recognize as constructive or even rational.
At the end of the day, I’m still deeply committed to principles like compassion, fairness, and helping those who need it. But I can’t ignore that the Democratic Party has moved in a direction that doesn’t seem to reflect these principles in the way I understand them anymore. I still want what’s best for the country, but I’m not convinced this new direction is it.
Today’s mischaracterizations of Trumps Cheney comments by major, trusted news networks just about broke my brain; it is so blatant, and frankly insane. I was going to vote for Kamala, not anymore.
