Well, I can understand what you are saying.
As far as social issues go, I am very liberal. In fact, I'd practically be a Democrat if I didn't hate their mentality so much. I work 40 hours a week and go to school as a full time student, I am working my ass off to get my degree and to get into the military to get some work experience.
In the meantime, my friends do nothing but complain about how hard it is to go anywhere in life. The thing is, they do jack shit nothing. A part time job at Subway and they say "I don't have the time for college", but all they do outside of 16 hours a week of work is party and fuck. But no, they don't have time to go to school so they sit around and complain about not being able to get a better job or about how they can't go to college because "it's either work or school" and "the government needs to do more to help us find better work".
So they advocate for the Democrat camp. Those were the Democrats I grew up with so even if I agree with the policies of the party, I couldn't associate myself with them due to that.
IIN I feel that my identity pushes me towards right wing politics?

It's a personal history thing, really. I get you.
