00:00Los Angeles is very good at branding itself as liberal.
00:04Guys and free Palestine, thank you.
00:08Modern liberalism is about believing in fairness and equal access, and using government to level the playing field.
00:15LA consistently elects democratic politicians at the city, state, and national levels, with very little exception.
00:22But famously liberal Los Angeles also suffers from some of the worst inequality in the United States.
00:28Plus, there are fewer Democrats and a lot more conservatives in LA than you might think.
00:33Do you feel like there's a perception that everyone here in LA is liberal?
00:38A hundred percent, yeah.
00:40You see LA from the outside, and like, I have family that lives in Florida, all Republicans, and they're like,
00:46are you the only Republican there?
00:48I remember when I first came to LA, because I'm not from here originally, and I kind of had the
00:53same perception.
00:53It was like, people would just be running naked down the streets, a lot of gay people, a lot of
00:57just liberals, just like, you know, it would be everywhere, right?
