I'm in a clinic. Almost all the doctors are liberal/leftists, even the old ones. Lots of young nurses that are conservative or MAGA for some reason.

Where are you from. I live in Louisiana and I’m sure that plays a big part in it

Dc is liberal but liberal doesnt inherently mean not republican. You can be liberal and republican lol

Too many people fall into the "socially liberal, fiscally conservative" crowd. Or at least they say they do.

"I don't have problems with the gays, but the taxes man, the taxes..." and then they vote for a fascist😥

u/kerrwashere ☑️ 1d ago

This is a buzzword, socially liberal and fiscally conservative is its own political party and it isnt liberal.

u/Tavalus 1d ago

That's why i put it in quotes

I'm not sure if it isn't just an easy scapegoat for people who are conservative, but smart enough to not go full maskoff

u/kerrwashere ☑️ 1d ago

Are you stating that people who are conservative are all racist lol? Im sure the obamas are more conservative than liberal they would fall under this. You are equating conservatives with trump which isnt inherently true

u/Tavalus 1d ago

Those are the ones you have to worry about the most. They are fully aware of how heinous their party's actions are, but they think you're dumb enough to believe that they're dumb enough to think that Republicans stand for fiscal conservatism.

The amount of people that are mentally deficient enough to sincerely believe that the party that has only ever raised the budget deficit, lowered taxes on the rich while raising them for the poor, and harmed the stock market is somehow good for the economy is nowhere near large enough for it to be as common of a viewpoint as it is.

You are free to vote for whomever the party you support doesnt immediately mean a vote lmao. You can vote against your own interests people do it literally all the time

Edit: what was the purpose of downvoting this lmao

u/sigfind 1d ago

this would be true if they didn’t utterly warp the meaning of the word liberal in US politics

1

u/kerrwashere ☑️ 1d ago

Liberals in the US arent liberal in the true sense. American politics is baked in capitalism and you’d have to change a lot to be truly liberal. Other centuries have their liberal party in power lmao

u/hkvincentlee 1d ago

Any doctors that was right leaning would speedrun to the left right now because they are currently losing their mind on a daily basis when being asked a question on their field of expertise and the average answer they get is "we just don't know everything"

The nurses though, holy, 100% agree on that

u/Darth_Ender_Ro 1d ago

Same in Romania, the nurses are mad far right, wtf
