RE: A Relatively Brief Recollection of Events and Experiences Responsible for Shaping My Current Political Affiliation
Sorry about all the obnoxious bot posts in your comments here, I'd say they're being insensitive but I don't think they can read...
I did read this whole post, thank you so much for sharing with this kind of depth and honesty, it's commendable. While I'm obviously much younger (first year I could vote was 2012), and figured out the shams of the conservative and republican values I was surrounded by as a kid sooner in life, I can relate to a lot of aspects of this, like your feeling like being a fish out of water in Portland.
I'm sorry for all the shit you've been through man, but for what it's worth, you seem to have become a strong, articulate, and convicted person in spite of it.
