Hello! I'm a  and   who resides in New Mexico.

Introduction
Hi, I first discovered this community during its FANDOM era and was even active on the site before it got terminated, although I never made an ideological page because I didn't know how to edit and I wasn't that politically literate at the time considering I had just joined politics. The only thing I knew at the time was that I was a social democrat, which from previously I held some vague generic liberal ideas. But, I didn't know a whole lot, just a hand full of cultural takes and some things related to economics that I wasn't even too educated on in the first place. After 2 years of political engagement, I know what I'm talking about now and can make an ideological page.

Political Journey
--> > /

Apolitical Phase (2004 - 2016) I held no political opinions because I was not educated on politics.

Generic Liberal Phase (2016 - 2021) For this period I was a pretty generic liberal, I didn't hate gay people (surprisingly I don't hate myself) and thought that abortion was good. Although I held some uninformed opinions which mostly came from my lack of understanding of politics.

/ Social Democratic Phase (2021 - 2023+) Now there is were my real political journey begins, although when I self-identified as a social democrat back in June of 2021, I wasn't that politically literate and just self-identify as a social democrat only using talking points I heard without knowing a whole lot of what I was actually talking about, although during 2022 I would hang out with actual social democrats and other left-wingers on the internet which greatly expanded my political knowledge. It was from that point sometime during the summer of 2022 that I actually knew what I was talking about, and that's were my political journey truly took off since I actually knew what I was talking about.

My Family
My mom's your average democrat. She's economically centrist and supports some welfare programs while being socially liberal on issues such as abortion and gay rights. She was by far the largest influence on me in terms of my ideological development, she also voted for Biden during the 2020 election and is a registered democrat.

My dad's a bit more left-wing than my mother is, he self-describes himself as a social democrat but I think the social liberal label fits him better. As you can expect, he's socially liberal on issues such as: abortion, feminism, LGBT rights, ect. He's a registered democrat and votes regularly.

My younger brother as autism and isn't interested in politics. Although due to my parents influenced even though he isn't old enough to vote (He was born in June of 2006), he has supported the Democratic party numerous times and culturally liberal movements such as the abortion rights movement and lgbt rights movement. My younger sister also has autism and isn't interested in politics, and I don't know if she even holds any positions like my brother since she doesn't engage in them at all. So, she's completely apolitical.

My Friends
David has been my friend since Middle School and we've been close ever since, and I asked him what his political beliefs were and he held quite extensive political beliefs. He is pro-choice, supports gay rights, but is mixed on the feminist movement (mostly because of terfs, which he feels as if gives feminism a bad name.). Overall, he is culturally liberal despite some the anti-SJW influences he picked up from his first time engaging in politics. She's apoltiical and doesn't engage in politics, although her cultural views are pretty centrist as she said she didn't care about gay people or abortion. So overall, she doesn't hold political beliefs.
