Have my political views changed?

Daily writing prompt
How have your political views changed over time?

My basic views have never changed that much, since they were based on strong principles of my faith, which I’ve also never changed, though I have questioned it.

I am more open to thinking there is more than one right way to do things for a country, as long as some basic principles are always adhered to.

Like one side thinks one solution works, the other has a different one, maybe either could work if done the right way.

I do have a problem with hypocrisy though, if people on any political spectrum say one thing, but do another, or only try to help one group, but ignore another, then I think it’s wrong.

I have become a bit more centrist I think than my parents, but, not enough to really cause conflict. My conflict is with extremists in any group, not with the rational minded people in them who can compromise.

If that answers the prompt, I’m not sure, it’s kind of a tough one for me.

Eh…yes and no?

How have your political views changed over time?

I’m not going to get into specifics, but, I do think that I’ve become more nuanced.

Also I’ve come to think that I have more faith in political principles than I do in actual politicians, but I think I’m not alone in that.

My views have not really changed since I was old enough to really understand politics, but I have deepened my understanding of them.
