Everyone talks about “toxic masculinity,” but no one wants to talk about “toxic femininity”—compassion, empathy, feelings, and self-love turned up to 11, to the point of harm. In other words, being a leftist. Reject the #clownworld. Speak the truth—as gracefully and firmly as possible. That’s compassion. Leftists don’t have the market cornered on it—not even close.

I believe in women's success without abortion and reject the idea of ending the lives of our own offspring in the name of liberation. However, I'm accused of hating women. I also believe that black Americans and minorities can succeed without special treatment, and that the world is not inherently against them due to their skin color. Yet, I'm labeled as racist. I advocate for self-acceptance and love for our bodies as they are, without celebrating unhealthy behaviors. But I'm called transphobic. The liberal agenda prioritizes compassion to an extreme, often causing harm to the very people they claim to help. As a conservative, my compassion is balanced with logic and reason, allowing me to effectively navigate the world.

Speaker 0: I believe women can succeed without abortion and that we deserve better than ending the lives of our own offspring and calling that liberation. And for that, I'm told I hate women. I believe that black Americans and other minorities can succeed without special treatment, and that in modern day America, the world is not stacked against them because of the color of their skin. And for that, I'm called racist. I believe we each should love and accept our bodies The way that they are, not to the point of celebrating unnecessary unhealthiness, but accepting our natural form, the way we were born.
And for that, I'm told I'm transphobic. I wish someone could explain this upside down clown world to me. But the liberal agenda is compassion turned up to 11. It's toxic empathy. It's it's compassion as your highest or even your only value to the detriment of everything else, to the point where You end up harming the very people that you claim to want to help as well as everyone else around who you have now sacrificed in favor of this group of people.
As a conservative, it's Not that I lack compassion. It's that my very real compassion is tempered with logic, reason, rationality, reality. Things that you very much need in order to operate effectively in this world, in order to be effectively compassionate in this world. If your highest value is compassion, if your highest value is making other people feel good all the time, making 1 group Feel good all the time. You're gonna end up hurting a lot of people because you're gonna end up lying.
Just take a look around.

A former lifelong Democrat from Los Angeles shares her experience of walking away from the party in the summer of 2020. She was encouraged to engage in protests but was told it was unsafe to go to work. She felt like screaming at everyone who thought that anyone concerned over lockdowns was just a wealthy white woman who wanted to get her hair and nails done. She felt betrayed by the people she had supported and aligned with all her life.

I have been a Democrat my entire life. I live in Los Angeles. I was an actress for years. I voted for Obama, then Clinton. I couldn’t wait to vote against the ban on gay marriage. I supported Planned Parenthood. I called JK Rowling “TERF.” I read books like THE NEW JIM CROW in an attempt to “educate” myself. I was a Democrat through-and-through, and more than that—I was even onboard with wokeism, with equity (as opposed to equality), with intersectional feminism, etc. These people had me pretty much hook, line, and sinker. Then in Summer 2020 I was encouraged to go out and engage in “firey but mostly peaceful protests” but was told it was still unsafe for me to go to work. That didn’t make sense. Nothing around me made any sense whatsoever. And I really needed to go back to work. Whenever I brought this up, I was told I was being selfish or even “racist.” Indeed, whenever I saw talk—whether online or on corporate news—of those who took issue with lockdowns, it was always framed as an issue of selfishness, even of racism. For some reason, liberal folks had this idea that anyone remotely concerned over lockdowns was a wealthy white woman who was just bored and wanted to get her hair and nails done. I felt like screaming at everyone, “who do you think does hair and nails?” Hairdressers and nail artists, whose jobs are ESSENTIAL TO THEM. Everyone is an “essential worker” to himself and the people who may depend upon him. What bothered me the most wasn’t that these people disagreed with me, or that they had different ideas on how best to handle covid or BLM unrest—what bothered me the most was that they absolutely refused to recognize I might have any honest reasons for disagreeing with them. And I had honest reasons for disagreeing with them. I and MANY others were being harmed by the tyrannical, overreaching, nonsensical response to covid—especially in blue cities and states. That felt like a punch to the gut, from the people I’d supported and aligned with all my life. So I walked away from the Democrat party. They’ve proven me correct every damn day since then. #walkaway

Speaker 0: What bothered me the most was that these people absolutely refused to acknowledge that I might have any honest reason for disagreeing with them. And that felt like a punch in the gut, especially on top of the fact that I couldn't go to work, but I was being encouraged to go out and protest. I'm Natalie Bysner. I am a conservative Christian and a political content creator. But before that, I was an atheist Democrat for a long time and I didn't know anything about politics.
In fact, I'm embarrassed by the things that I didn't know. I have lived in Los Angeles for close to 10 years where I currently reside. And yes, it plays a big part in my walk away story. I was also an actress for a very long time. So I guess I just took it as gospel truth that compassionate people vote Democrat and Democrats are compassionate People.
In 2016, I drove a 100 miles round trip just to vote for Hillary Clinton for president. I was still registered in an old county despite the fact that at that point I have been living in Los Angeles for close to 2 years. So that gives you an idea of just How politically motivated I was, I couldn't be bothered to actually register in the correct county, to actually do any research on the ballot. I just really really really really really needed to vote for Hillary Clinton for president. So I spent the majority of the Trump administration hating that man.
I couldn't tell you why I hated him exactly, but I could definitely tell you that I hated him. But something interesting happened during the Trump years. It was the 1st time that I remember becoming aware of this forceful push for racial diversity above all things. Not just in Hollywood, which I have since left for many reasons, but also beyond Hollywood, everywhere. It was also the 1st time that I remember hearing the phrase White privilege.
And then I heard it over and over and over again, and even though I was still so liberal, so democrat, so Totally on board with everything. That phrase felt like a little bit of a betrayal from my side because, It doesn't match my experience. It doesn't match the experience that I've seen my parents have or my family. I'm incredibly blessed in so many ways. We all are just To live in this nation, but I come from a family that works very hard and also struggles a great deal to this day.
And to be frank, there is no part of me that can relate to white privilege whatsoever. Also there seems to be no one who can actually tell me what specifically white privilege is, especially when you divorce it From wealth and finances, but I stuffed all that down because I thought it made me not compassionate, not a good liberal. And it's also not exactly something you say as a white liberal actress in Hollywood, but I remember that because it was the 1st time that I became clued into the fact that Something might not be quite right here. And then 2020 happened. And like so many Americans, I lost both of my jobs Overnight, which gave me concern because of my family and my financial situation, and also I just need to work.
But I was, That said I was totally on board with everything. I was scared. I didn't know what was going on and I wanted to do my part, and I did do my part. But as 2 weeks To slow the spread turned into 2 months and counting, I did start to have some questions. No one was talking about opening up again getting people back to work Despite the fact that even at that point it had become somewhat clear that this was maybe not quite as bad as they had originally been projecting, and thank God.
And there were strange things going on around me. Not just the arrows on the floor of the supermarket to give you a direction which way to go to protect you from COVID, But also all of the parks around me were caution taped off. Just caution tape like maliciously wrapped around and around and around. Not just the jungle gym But also the exercise equipment which was already 6 feet apart. These body weight machines.
And I thought how odd that an adult cannot come to these machines Which are 6 feet apart out in the California sun to get healthy to stay healthy during a global health CRISIS. And then I would take these long walks around Los Angeles and, just to try to stay sane and somewhat healthy. And I never wore a mask outdoors. I always at the time wore 1 indoors which was really just to the grocery store. But wearing 1 outdoors didn't quite make sense to me, Especially because if ever I saw anyone coming I would get off the street, the sidewalk well in advance into the street.
And I would even cross the street if I could, Just to be respectful but it didn't matter because every single person that I encountered on those walks throughout 2020 well into 2021, Every single person stopped to tell me, sometimes to yell at me, what a bad person I was for being unmasked, alone, Outdoors, in the sun, on a walk, not sick, well over 6 feet away from anyone, and sometimes that would be my only Face to face human interaction for the day because I was following the rules, and of course I know I could have solved this by just putting on a mask for these walks, but That didn't seem truthful to me. I thought you know I've already given up my jobs, I don't know when I'll get them back, turns out never. I stay home, I don't see my family, I don't go out. I only go to the grocery store. You know, what else do these people want from me?
I don't understand how I can get someone sick when I'm not sick from Across the street you know outdoors on a walk alone. So it was these little things that started adding up as not quite right but I continued to do my part. And then summer 2020 I was told, we were all told both implicitly and also explicitly, that I could go out and riot or protest, but I still couldn't go to work. And in fact the same people telling me that I could go out and protest or worse Were the same people telling me that it was still not safe for me to go to work? The people on the nightly news who never let go of their COVID death count yet supported these protests.
The Democrat leaders in my city and in my state who locked everything down yet supported these protests. Even some of the medical community, Many of whom were telling me I was going to die of COVID, yet many of them supported these protests. I remember reading in the New York Times On CNN about doctors signing letters, please don't shut down these historic necessary protests. And I don't wanna shut down anyone's first amendment right to peacefully protest. But if you were encouraging and supporting these protests, it was clear that this was not quite the level of public health emergency You were claiming that it was.
So can I get back to work? I really need to get back to work. And on top of that I watch these mom and pop shops, These independent stores and restaurants that had just barely been permitted to open in Los Angeles, still with heavy heavy restrictions, I watched them shut down again. Bar up their doors and windows due to peaceful protests. At one point Los Angeles was under a nightly curfew due to Peaceful protests on top of a lockdown that at that point had gone on for many months would continue on for many more months, although none of us necessarily knew that at the time.
And I thought this is crazy, this is not how I want to live, it's incredibly hypocritical. And no one on the left that I knew, which was Everyone that I knew at that time and no one on the left that I knew of, no celebrity, no politician, no one was voicing my concerns or the concerns of the many people like me. The people who would probably survive COVID but maybe not survive the response to COVID financially or emotionally or mental health wise. And whenever I Dare to even remotely voice my concerns usually in an overly long, overly polite Facebook post, I would be immediately shut down by The democrat people on my feed, all of the people on my feed, I was called selfish, I was called racist. So here was this white privilege thing again in the middle of this Global health crisis, this unprecedented situation when I was just kind of asking can I go back to work?
I need to go back to work. And what bothered me the most about this was not that these people disagreed with me. It wasn't even that they wanted to keep us locked down. What bothered me the most was that these people absolutely refused to acknowledge that I might have any honest reason for disagreeing with them. And that felt like a punch in the gut, especially on top of the fact that I couldn't go to work, but I was being encouraged to go out and protest.
And I did have an honest reason for disagreeing with them. I wanted and I needed to get back to work. And I should have been able to do that. So I walked away from the Democrat party. For the 1st time in my life, I could draw a clear, undeniable line from my current state of suffering, my current quality of life, to democrat policies.
And the democrat party has proven me correct every single day since walking away. There was one point in Los Angeles after I walked away wherein for about 6 months I could not walk into a bar or restaurant in the city that I have lived in for close to 10 years And the state that I have paid taxes and lived in for my entire life because I didn't have the right medical papers. Now that was all Democrats And I will never forget it. I hope no one ever does. I ended up becoming a conservative Christian, which I know is not everyone's walk away And, definitely never thought it would be mine.
And it didn't happen overnight. It was a slow gradual process that happened because of 2 things. When I walked away from the Democrat party, number 1, I became informed and involved with politics for the first time in my life. For the 1st time in my life, I realized how important not just voting is, but informed voting. How important state and local elections are.
I was painfully aware of the fact that my fellow Americans in other parts of the country were leading semi normal lives despite this global crisis Because of the people that they had elected as mayors and especially governors etcetera. And I wanted to make sure this never happened to people like me again. So I wanted to be informed about all the things I had been ignorant about. And, so because of that, number 2, I became probably for the first time Open to outside voices, to differing opinions. I realized that so much that I had been so sure I was right about, Well, I'd been wrong about it.
And if that were true, there were probably other things I was wrong about. And sure enough, there were. As it turns out, I agree with the conservative position on most issues. On most issues the conservative position is reasonable, rational, Logical, scientific, moral, ethical. The liberal position is emotional.
The conservative position has compassion. The liberal position has Faux compassion. I am continually struck to this day as I study the history that came before me, the history that occurred during my lifetime that I was ignorant of, And the current situation, I'm continually struck by the fact that democrat policies time and again harm the very demographic That they were put in place to help women, minorities, the people coming in at the border. Even with COVID, Democrats claimed throughout and they claim still that they had the only compassionate response to COVID. Yet how many people were harmed, self included, by that compassion.
And somewhere in all that Christ called me back to him. I was saved and, Went back to the church after having left it for a long time, became a Christian, and now this is the kind of stuff I talk about online on my pages and sometimes It's at rallies and I'm grateful to do it. I want to thank you all so much for listening to my story. And the last thing I want to share is, you know, It is one thing to walk away from a party or a group because you can just no longer stomach what it is they stand for. But it's another thing entirely to have A home waiting for you on the other side.
A warm welcome. And that's what I found with WalkAway. I think no matter what, I would have always walked away from the Democrat party on my own, in summer 2020 because in Los Angeles I had a front row seat to being affected by the hypocritical insane Democrat policies. But without WalkAway I don't know if I would be politically active, Politically involved, speaking out speaking out about my walk away story. But what I have found with walk away with every person who's not of the radical left, there is a tolerance ironically and a warmth that the Left does not have.
You know over the past 3 years I have received a lot of hate from the left for leaving the left. They continue to do what they did with COVID, with BLM, what they do with everything, which is refuse to acknowledge that I might have an Honest reason for disagreeing. An honest reason for walking away. But you know what I've never gotten? I have never once received a response of, Wow.
It took you until 2020 to stop voting Democrat? Why did it take you so long? I never once received a welcome like that after walking away. And I think that alone speaks volumes about the difference in attitude between the radical left and everyone else. And I hope that you know how much that means, especially to people like me.
Someone who didn't just walk away from the Democrat party, but essentially had her entire worldview Flip it flip upside down over the course of a year. And it is frightening and, Humbling to realize you were wrong about so much for so long and to admit you were wrong. And then to receive a warm welcome On the other side of that, instead of self righteousness or vindictiveness, that is a wonderful, blessed thing. So I hope you know how much that means to people like me, and I hope we never lose it. I wanna thank Brandon and To everyone in the WalkAway community, God bless you all.
