I think you have seek it out. Surround yourself with those of like mind and the encouragement will follow. With enough people doing the right thing, good things happen.

I'm in a fairly blue portion of a dead, er, red state. Ohio voters can't get out of their own way and routinely vote against their own best interest. A perfect example of that is the voters of Trumbull and Mahoning Counties voting for the current resident of the White House on the promise that he would keep the GM plant in Lordstown open. Page ahead 2+ years and the last car from that plant just rolled off the assembly line this week. Buyer's remorse doesn't begin to describe the sentiment among voters there.

Don't lose heart. History tells us that political winds change frequently. They will in Ohio and in other portions of the nation as people get wise to Republican lies.

Hmm...kinda like being agnostic in a religious world

If you're alluding to the Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz, I find that a bit of a straw man argument.

Tell me about it, I am a 63 year old native born Albertan socialist farmer.

Yeah liberal in red county

i know the feeling

I live in South Central Pennsylvania and James Carvel, when Bill Clinton was running said it well: Pennsylvania: Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Alabama in between.

Like minded people are out there. Don’t be shy or afraid to speak your truth. (Non confrontaionally) That’s how it spreads. Good luck.

Although I know a few anti-Republicans, in this sate, for the most part we have that in view in common. ND, my state is by voting the 3rd greatest supporting state of tRump.

I’ve met some liberals in Oklahoma, but few activists. I hear you. I moved from NYC to Kansas. It’s lonely. But I have found some individuals and groups I can connect with. Don’t despair!

Look for a Drinking Liberally group in your area. It helps to know there are like minded people around. You can find a list of locations on their website.

Shall we organize a rescue mission?

I saw in your bio you are in Oklahoma. My heart goes out to you! I feel your pain as I live in Texas. I have met many Democrats and progressive people here, but they all seem to keep quiet as to not bring attention to themselves. I remember one woman approaching me in the parking lot at the grocery store to tell me she liked my bumper sticker when I had one on for Wendy Davis when she ran for Governor. She said, "you're very brave. I won't put one on my car for fear it will get keyed or worse". These repubs in the South can be a nasty bunch.

Get.out.fast!

i'm so grateful i was born, and live in a blue state, surrounded by liberal freethinkers
