The #Walkaway movement that began with a popular Facebook video featuring a gay hairdresser in New York City explaining why he was leaving the Democratic Party has quickly morphed into a major force on social media and beyond.
According to an article last Thursday in the Epoch Times, some five million people on Facebook and YouTube have seen the groundbreaking video showing a “very handsome gay man” who describes his awakening to the inanities of liberalism and the Democratic Party.
“Once upon a time, I was a liberal. Well, to be honest, less than a year ago, I was still a liberal,” begins Brandon Straka, the unlikely face of the new “silent minority” of Americans.
“I reject a system which allows an ambitious, misinformed and dogmatic mob to suppress free speech, create false narratives, and apathetically steamroll over the truth,” he says. “I reject hate.”
“These are the reasons why I became a liberal. And these are the same reasons why I am now walking away.”
Straka published his original #WalkAway video on May 26, and since then his life “has been overtaken by a tidal wave,” the Epoch Times reports.

More and more Liberals are finally seeing the light and are getting out from under the moth-eaten blanket of lies and free stuff that the Democrats threw over them.
MAGA - Make all Americans Great Again
"Liberal" used to mean "Live and let live" more or less in the early 60's. Now, it's more like, "Live how I tell you or I'll get physical on your arse."
Word definitions seem to be a weak point of the D party any more.
Good comment, 9:49 AM.
Don't walk away, run.
