I was wrong about the Democratic Party #walkaway
Youtube ^ | 9/20/2020 | Georgia H

Teach for America made me abandon the racism of the left. AOC made me abandon the left altogether. #walkaway #walkawaycampaign

I am a bit overwhelmed with the way this video has blown up (despite persistent shadow banning from YT!), and i really appreciate the thoughtful comments i've received. i noticed a few themes in the comments and i continue to get the same questions, so i want to address them here!

1) I did not jump from blind loyalty to democrats to blind loyalty to republicans. i simply came to the realization that i am not represented by leftism (which has overtaken the dem party), and I align better with conservatism. Typically that means i prefer the republican candidate, but i have no strong party loyalty. as many of you mentioned there is plenty wrong with the GOP as well. I purposefully did not include a ringing endorsement of the GOP for that reason.

2) i have specific and compelling reasons why i am conservative vs libertarian or moderate etc. and i arrived at those reasons through a lot of introspection and research. i am less concerned about the superficial issues of today and more concerned about the enduring principles we stand on, as well as procedural adherence to our founding documents. I've read a lot of Burke, Scruton, Sowell, etc. and i was impressed with their arguments. i did not expound on those arguments in the video because i didnt want to babble on for hours. If you want to understand conservatism, those writers are a wonderful place to start (try sowell, hes all over YT!), or check out ben shapiro. the point of this video is not to make people conservative, but rather to explain why some people choose not to be leftist.

I watched the whole thing yesterday. It was great. This is what #RealWoke looks like.

Need some punctuation in the headline. The author was not wrong about #walkaway. He was wrong about the democratic party.

Maybe some thing like this.

I was wrong about the Democratic party. #Walkaway!

Note: the Democrat party is anything but democratic.

Classic case of; “I did not leave my party so much as my party left me!”

True that. Today’s Democrat party is rigid and Stalinist. No dissent is permitted. Tow the ultra-liberal party line or be “cancelled”.

Fascinating video.

Extremely well done.

47 minutes long.

I was not going to watch it all. But it was riviting as it showed the extent of Progressive brainwashing.

This young woman shows how she broke out of the brainwashing.

Just... Wow.

I have never heard of her before. She has over a million views so far, only 25k subscribers, and this is the only video on her chanel. While I’m sure that a lot of the views are lonely, desperate guys just watching because she’s attractive, this is still quite a phenomenon.

Reasons to vote the Biden/Harris ticket (AKA the Hidey-Ho ticket):

<><> You are eager to have the media and all branches of a Biden government on the same side, speaking with a unified voice.

<><> You are certain news reporting needs deep state journalists and leftist politicians as their helpers.

<><> You support limiting scarce jobs with screening software that junks resumes b/c they don't contain the "right words" or exhibit the "correct politics."

<><> You admire an orderly society where everyone knows their place.....like China.

I was talking to a childhood friend yesterday (his family were big Democrats) and he surprised me when he showed me his house. In his front yard was a Trump/Pence sign. He told me that his dad (who was from Poland and was a machinist), had enough of the Dems in 2008. Friend said that his dad loved Trump (he died last year) and they #walkaway in 2008, before it was popular. Friend said he’s an independent, but most Dems are liars. In 1972, he wouldn’t speak to me for 3 weeks after Nixon won... :-).

Wow. I just watched the whole thing. Georgia is excellent at describing the extreme brainwashing and manipulation and how the desire for Truth inside and the reality of Life eventually freed her to think on her own. Powerful transition story.

No better example in her story than her ER incident with a miscarriage. A Must-Watch video. Actually, a Must-SHARE video.

I watched it and shared it with all my liberal friends yesterday.

Excellent video and worth the time to watch.

Thanks for sharing it again.

A question for all you “Trump will get more black votes” people.

First: He won’t. If he gets over 5% it will be astonishing.

Second: And I want an answer to this one. IF Trump got zero black votes, but increased his white vote share to 72% and won in a landslide as a result - would that be a good thing, or a bad thing, and why?
