Why I Left the Right: A Journey from Conservatism to Liberalism
![Jese Leos](https://chronicle.bookgemstone.com/author/johnny-turner.jpg)
I was raised in a conservative household. My parents were both Republicans, and they taught me the importance of hard work, self-reliance, and individual responsibility. I believed that government should be limited, taxes should be low, and the free market should be allowed to operate without interference.

As I got older, I began to question some of the tenets of conservatism. I started to see the ways in which the free market could lead to inequality and exploitation. I began to think that government could play a positive role in protecting the environment, ensuring access to healthcare, and providing a safety net for those in need.
My political views continued to evolve throughout my college years. I took classes in political science, economics, and history. I read widely and engaged in discussions with people from all walks of life. I began to realize that there was more to the world than the simplistic dichotomy of left and right.
After college, I got a job working for a non-profit organization. I saw firsthand the challenges that many people face in our society. I met people who were struggling to make ends meet, people who were uninsured, and people who were being discriminated against. My experiences working with these people changed my perspective on the role of government.
I began to believe that government has a responsibility to help those in need. I believe that we should all have access to quality healthcare, education, and housing. I believe that we should protect the environment and ensure that everyone has a fair chance to succeed.
My decision to leave the right was not easy. I had to break away from my family and friends, and I had to face criticism from people who disagreed with my views. But I believe that I made the right decision. I am now a liberal, and I am proud of the values that I hold.
## The Challenges of Leaving the Right
Leaving the right can be a difficult and isolating experience. You may face criticism from your family and friends. You may be labeled a traitor or a sellout. You may even be threatened with violence.
It is important to remember that you are not alone. There are many people who have left the right, and there are organizations that can provide support and guidance. If you are considering leaving the right, I urge you to do your research and to reach out to others who have made the same journey.
## Why People Leave the Right
There are many reasons why people leave the right. Some people leave because they no longer agree with the party's policies. Others leave because they feel that the party has become too extreme. Still others leave because they believe that the party is no longer representative of their values.
I believe that there is a growing number of people who are leaving the right because they are no longer comfortable with the party's embrace of racism, sexism, and xenophobia. These people are looking for a more inclusive and compassionate political home.
## The Future of the Right
The Republican Party is at a crossroads. The party can continue to embrace the forces of division and extremism, or it can choose to become a more inclusive and compassionate party. The future of the party will depend on which path it chooses.
I believe that the Republican Party can have a future if it is willing to change. The party needs to broaden its appeal and to embrace a more inclusive and compassionate message. If the party can do this, then it has the potential to regain the support of moderate voters and to become a force for good in our country.
##
My journey from conservatism to liberalism was not easy, but I believe that it was the right decision. I am now a liberal, and I am proud of the values that I hold. I believe that we all have a responsibility to help those in need, and I believe that government can play a positive role in making our society more just and equitable.
I urge you to think critically about your own political views. Are you truly a conservative? Or are you simply clinging to the beliefs that you were taught when you were young? If you are open to changing your mind, then I encourage you to learn more about liberalism. You may be surprised at what you find.
