I moved from republican to libertarian 5 years when trump ran. I hate him and don’t see why so many republicans liked him back in 2016 or today. Being in the middle since then, I have looked at both the left and the right with a lot of disgust, but one thing has been clear to me....the left has all social media as a platform, while the right is being shut out and forced out of having a platform and it’s a scary thing. Twitter and Reddit are their two biggest platform. I love to get news on here, but everything is so controlled by the left it is disgusting. And while I condemn almost everything the GOP has done over the last 5 years, I’ve seen people get banned or downvoted like crazy just for staying their opinion. I truly feel like the left wants far right groups to exist, but not the moderate right, because they want the average American to see republicans as crazy and racist, when that in fact is not true.
It’s really tough to see this divide In our country. I hope someday they’ll listen and allow a third party to debate and have an actual platform, but right now, media, athletes, Hollywood, are basically saying, if you aren’t democrat, you’re a bad person, and that makes me sick to my stomach. What can we do?
