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?


Generally surounded by socially liberal / left wing.
Exception is my dad who’s sort of fashy at times, which I do hate him for
In my town, some lefty but also quite a few one nation farmer voters (one nation being australias trumpist party)
