  • This roughly aligns with my xperience, although if they really get to know you some will be more forthright about their politics. Many look longingly to what we have in the west.

  • They do exist, but seemingly not in the US anymore. In Canada we call them Progressive Conservatives (basically "be as gay as you want but don't raise my taxes") and they're becoming a dying breed too.
