It's not news that our society seems to be becoming more and more liberal; millennials making up a large amount of the liberal party. My own family is very conservative, but according to my mother, I'm "granola." In other words, I'm the liberal black sheep of my family. Here are 9 signs that you may be too:
1. You've probably heard "you're only liberal because you're young" more times than you can count.
While this may be true for some cases, you also know that you aren't too young to have your own views, especially since your vote counts in the next election.
2. You are also probably familiar with "You don't stand up for anything."
On the contrary, I just happen to stand for basically everything and everybody.
3. When your family argues you may catch yourself saying "It's 2016, they can do what they want."
As long as they aren't hurting you or anyone else then who really cares? You go, progressive you!
4. As your family loves to remind you, our generation is doomed if liberals are in charge.
Because the most conservative is definitely the best option...
5. You constantly find yourself educating your family on what Planned Parenthood does besides abortion.
I'm not quite sure if everyone knows how much work they do.
6. You bring up politics around your family then immediately wish you hadn't.
I was not in the mood for a brawl fight today, thanks though, mom.
7. When you do end up "discussing" politics with your family, you often find yourself isolated with a completely different opinion.
Sometimes this may lead to you remaining silent until they force your opinion, run out of steam, or maybe you wave your white flag just to get it over with.
8. Sometimes you're surprised by what another member of your family says.
That's when you start wondering if maybe you truly are adopted.
