I was curious how common it is to be, say, a leftist in a very conservative area.

My county, family, and school are all very conservative. It makes it a bit intimidating to engage in any political discussion. I also rarely get to hear leftist opinion anywhere in person, which means i need to devote a lot of time to considering and thinking about arguments that are probably already solved.

Are you, or have you been, in a similar situation?

              protests at synagogues and general harassment of Jews.

              when you spout easily disproven bullshit like this, I know that you’re purely agenda driven. You’re a fool.

                  protest at synogogue

                  You mean like the one where an isreali company is promoting the sale of stolen Palestinian land? and protestors showed up? 100% called for.

                  Most people understand that it’s the idf and the isreali government that’s to blame for all this, but if you have a population committing a genocide, yes, there’s gonna be some people who take it personally.
