American political ideology as a whole has shifted left in recent years, but women are becoming even more liberal, according to Gallup.

The survey data, released Wednesday, shows that while the country remains largely center-right, the percentage of those identifying as or leaning liberal has increased over the past three decades, and is now just 1 percent under it’s all-time high.

Roughly 36 percent of adults identify as conservative, 25 percent as liberal and the rest identify as either moderate or unsure, according to the poll.

When broken down by gender ideology, women in the youngest and oldest age groups said they were more likely to identify as liberal.

Women ages 18-29 were 40 percent more likely to be liberal in 2023, a slight decrease from 41 percent in 2022 and 44 percent in 2020, but still higher than the 30 percent in 2013. Those ages 65 and older were 25 percent more likely to identify as liberal — a slight increase from the 21 percent reported in 2013.

    You should repent of your sins. And I’m not a fundamentalist in the slightest despite being Christian.

    Painting everyone that disagrees with you as a fundamentalist allows you to dismiss their arguments easily but it doesn’t change the arguments. You’re still wrong, you’ve just blinded yourself to it even further by dehumanizing and dismissing your opponents.

    By the way it’s possible I’m wrong about your character. But I was so shocked by the revoltingness and the disgustingness of your argument that I assumed only a horrible person would make such an argument. Forgive me if I’m actually wrong and you’re just erroring in judgment here. But you write as if an unborn child is a parasite on the mother with no right to survive within its mother’s body.

    As if the mother’s actions didn’t deliberately create that child. And it’s not a parasite. It’s a human being. Your argument that a child should be aborted because the mother doesn’t want to “lend her body to it anymore”, it’s so disgusting and immoral, It’s just sick. It literally stuns me. I’m not even sure how I can explain and prove to you that that’s immoral.

      You don’t like being called a fundamentalist because you know they are abhorrent.

      You don’t like your own argument. You can’t even stomach the inkling that your own hypocrisy.

          You know how I know you are lying? Because your first reaction to me expanding on your argument was to tell me I am a sinner.

          If you treat any of your “friends” that way you are truly a terrible person.

              Are you familiar with the statistics and the science about this. You know most people that transition go on to live much happier lives. I know I have

              Lol. This isn’t my argument. This is your argument followed more completely.

              You don’t even know what my argument is or what my beliefs are. All I have done is point out your own hypocrisy.

        I will absolutely dare to tell you how to live your life. And you do the same thing. It’s the nature of having moral beliefs. Are you going to say the same thing to someone that rapes their children or murders refugees? Your entire personality as an activist is based around telling other people what they should do with their lives but only when a religious person is in the scenario does that suddenly become invalid.

        You’re a hypocrite. I am not. You should stop that. Be a better person. And quit advocating for the murder of unborn children because of inconvenience and a skewed belief on bodily autonomy that ignores literally every other factor. As if it exists in a vacuum.

        Actions have consequences and I will absolutely advocate for social justice. That includes for those alive and those yet unborn.
