I don’t think I was ever anti-political as much as I was struggling to find someone with policies to match what my old political beliefs were like. I used to be fiscally liberal but socially more conservative, due to my religious environment. A couple of things happened. I gradually started to become more and more socially liberal, and 2016 got me out to vote because I couldn’t fathom a certain former reality TV host becoming president after the campaign he ran. Since then I haven’t missed an election, and though I still consider myself an independent because I feel the two party system has largely led to a lot of problems, every time I’ve voted since 2016 has basically been a referendum against the current GOP. Blue all the way down ballot, and when a GOP candidate is unchallenged, I left it blank. If you can’t tell, the current GOP scares me.
