I grew up left wing and Christian. Then again I was born and bred and the Aussie version of Washington DC. Christianity is neither left nor right. It's pro truth, justice, redemption and forgiveness. Something sadly lacking on both sides of the political aisle.
It's increasingly harder to speak the truth in love to someone who has an immediate bias or even hatred against oneself and what ever you say. Especially when their categorization of what you're saying is completely uncharitable, reductionist or straw manned. I enjoy a good stir and a good laugh, so maybe I've cost myself a sincere exchange of ideas outside of an audio convo (either on a voice chat or in person). People don't see things how things are, people see things how they (the individual/s) are.
I would not consider myself "leftwing" now tho
