This mirrors my story. Extremely liberal household, living in Portland, surrounded by extremely liberal people, being fed extremely liberal news.

After voting for Obama twice, it was about a year into his second term when I actually started paying attention to politics and doing my own research.

Anyhow, I voted for Trump twice, changed my registration to Republican, lost friends (not by my choice), and my family casually mentions from time to time how "concerned" they are for me. Even as far as saying "we think you're getting your information from fake news".

Amazing. I've wondered what it's like for people raised by liberals in the thought bubble.
