“These are the reasons why I became a liberal. And these are the same reasons I am now walking away.” Ex-liberals and “lifelong Democrats” of all backgrounds are leaving and are no longer concerned about the backlash from others because they’ve left the party. The social media campaign called #WalkAway has gone viral with videos of people declaring they no longer support the Left’s liberal agenda.
The Left’s anti-Trump pro-Socialism agenda and identity politics has resulted in ex-liberals taking to social media to express their frustrations of the Democrat party and the media. “I reject a system which allows an ambitious, misinformed and dogmatic mob to suppress free speech, create false narratives, and apathetically steamroll over the truth,” stated founder ex-liberal, Brandon Straka. In the video that kicked off his campaign, Straka said that he had watched with grave concern as “the Left devolved into intolerant, inflexible, illogical, hateful, misguided, ill-informed, un-American, hypocritical, menacing, callous, ignorant, narrow-minded, and at times blatantly fascistic behavior and rhetoric.”
Accusing Democrats of cultivating a victim mentality among the party’s minority supporters, Straka argues that its attempt to portray a person of color, a woman, an LGTB person, a migrant as a “victim of systemic oppression” is the party’s “greatest and most insidious lie” – which is needed so minorities will see their saviors to be Democrats, who in fact do nothing to improve their situations. Some 5 million people on Facebook and YouTube have seen the video by now.
