This past October, former hardcore musket-grabbing Trumper turned failed Resistance Republican presidential candidate Joe Walsh marked National Coming Out Day by coming out as a conservative. A “proudly woke” conservative, to be specific.
Politically, I’m a conservative. And I’m woke. Newly woke. Proudly woke. Just means my eyes are now open to basic injustices & inequities. My eyes weren’t always open. But now they are. I think that’s a good thing. And yes, I’m still a conservative.
