I want to explain, as a gay man, how I came to the conclusion that Democrats were no longer a party for me (and my Hispanic partner). This is not to say Republicans are perfect, they aren't, but I truly believe in today's time they are the lesser of two evils. Never in the history of the United States have gay people been more privileged than right now, today. We enjoy the same freedoms, protections, and rights as any other American. Those rights and freedoms are derived from the greatest document ever written in history to curb an over-bearing government, The Constitution of the United States of America. 25 years ago, Democrats were against gays and lesbians being able to marry. Even Obama's first term when he was running stated that he was against gays being married. Somewhere along the line their political advisors told them they could capture the LGB vote and how the percentage was enough to actually sway elections. They did, and they captured almost all of it. It was a slew of political propaganda with some results, admittedly. Those results should have stopped at enjoying the same freedoms and protections as any United States citizen. ...but it didn't. Like all things that Democrats do, it became over the top and flashy. No longer were the same rights enough, we 'needed' additional privileges. We 'needed' a month in June. We 'needed' pride flags posted at schools. We 'needed' crosswalks painted in rainbow colors. That's not what we were fighting for. We were fighting for the belief that if government is going to be in the marriage business and give additional tax treatments and other rights to heterosexual couples; we also should be afforded those rights. Democrats just couldn't stop. They had to shove our sexuality in everyone's faces, rather than just letting us live. Cut to 2020 and Democrats took fascism to a whole other level. They threatened and enacted the persecution of a President. They pressured social media companies to ban conservative speakers. They shut schools down even though kids had a tiny percentage of being drastically harmed by a virus, and locked people away in institutions where family couldn't visit and people died alone. Democrats did that. They even went so far during the Biden Administration to ban conservatives from certain banking institutions. That's fascism. They let in hoards of unvaccinated illegal immigrants to the tune of MILLIONS and put them in the most docile of country places, all while losing track of almost HALF A MILLION CHILDREN. Maliciously, that was to setup the inevitable pathway to grant illegal immigrants citizenship and drastically overhaul the electoral map. That's not democracy. Diluting citizen votes by some fraudulent and evil workaround is not democracy. ...and among those illegal immigrants were tens of thousands of Middle Eastern people, whose very existence do not align with sincerely held Democratic beliefs. That ideology beheads and hangs gays. Then came the trans movement. They cleverly leveraged the cultish gay community to include "T" in our acronym, and that was by design. They would say, "well we helped the gays and lesbians, so if we lump the trans into the acronym it will put them all together, like cattle." Sexuality is wholly different than gender and sex. We aren't the same, and leveraging our goodwill to propagate yet another drastic change in society, is not good nor is it progressive. Democrats lost something from 2016-2024 and it's hard to articulate it any other way than, they lost their identity. They made their hate mainstream. They hate people who think differently, they belittle those without a college degree, they hate the nuclear family, they hate white people, they hate success, they talk down to black people as if they are stupid; they hate you simply for being you. Democrats have become the party of propaganda, extremism, elitism, anti-science, anti-American values, and anti-capitalism. They are now the party of envy, cult-like behavior, and loathing. That's not normal. You begin to look around and think, "the Democrat party no longer aligns with my sincerely held beliefs." At one time there was an argument to the value that Democrats proposed. A good argument too, especially if you were a minority. Gays, Blacks, Jews, Hispanics, all were able to be part of a bigger identity that gave us a voice. Yet now, we begin to realize that we were merely a stepping stone and would be discarded as soon as they achieved their mission of gaining votes. They thought we would never turn because they fought so hard for us. If you import people that will take our jobs and religious people that hate us, enact huge government programs that will take our wages, and leave us in the dust at the first sight of your next pet project, we will begin to vote differently and forget about what you may have once sincerely fought for. Gays, Lesbians, Blacks, Hispanics, and other minorities, I urge you to look in the mirror and say, "in the past 10 years, have the Democrats provided any value to me and my family, or have I been voting for what the Democratic party stood for in the past?" The Democrat party is very good at moving the goal posts and discarding you the minute they see an opportunity to propagate their next stepping stone, in this case, it is Muslims and Trans-people. I urge you to ask yourself, "If these people are in a position of power, do they help me and my family?" There's an amazing quote by Charles Barkley, "Black people have been voting Democrat for 60 years, and what has that gotten them? They are still poor" (paraphrased). They are poor because the Democrat solution to anything is more government overreach and taxes. Taxes harm everyone and don't allow for the upward mobility of minority communities. They keep us down for a reason because we will become dependent upon government assistance, and it's time to change that. This is our country as much as it is a white heterosexual man, and it's time we take ownership of that. With that ownership comes the responsibility to better our communities. Our communities are not safer or more prosperous when Democrats are in charge. Don't vote for a Democrat because they did something for you 20 years ago. They have changed their views and positions, and it's time to change ours.

A typical liberal’s response when they don’t understand the difference between voluntary and involuntary.

Trump is remaking South and Latin America into a powerhouse. There's still a couple of fascist left countries, but they are slowly falling.

When voting, all you need to do is look at your nearest liberal-run city. High crime, high taxes, high bills, drug-addicts, and fraudsters everywhere…and you’ll quickly realize why you vote Republican.

If you think you can't afford things now due to inflation, wait until Democrats are in power and it's inflation + higher taxes.

The fact that you equate humans to a literal animal to propagate some historically disproven economic worldview is very telling.

If liberals think the government is fascist now, wait until some more of their “brilliant and unique ideas” are enacted. They are going to hate that fascism.

The left got their marching orders.

I wish I could somehow get liberals to understand that I cannot afford more taxes as a middle class person. In 2025, I paid $16,818.80 to the IRS from Income, Social Security, and Medicare. Democrats only propose one solution: "Oh, you just need to pay more taxes." No, I don't.

I genuinely thought this was a hoax, but I just got my morning email from USPS and look what is being delivered today. I can't find any information on this organization, so it appears to be a ploy to remind Texans what's on the ballot this year.

The UK still has a chance. Here we have an older gentleman talking about how “it’s complicated” when in reality it is so very simple.
