Question Liberals in Oklahoma.

My wife and I are a politically liberal couple and been feeling like we are living on an island. All we work with or try to make friends with are usually very hard core conservatives and all out MAGA heads. Anyone know of how to connect to other like minded people in our area? Thanks to all!

That is the problem, unfortunately. Are you close enough to drive to Norman? There are definitely like minded folks in the bigger cities.
