Preach. brother!

...oh, wait! ;)

I feel the same (not from the US), there's not a size fit all. Even in places supposedly more representative it's usually 1 dimensional rather then 2 dimensional. Worst are the people who support everything their party says, often a case of tribalism, making choices for the wrong reasons.

The biggest reason I'm a "Republican" is because I believe in the 2nd Amendment. That's it. All the freedom of speech comes from that single ability to enforce it. If that is removed, so is everything else. The only reason people can march in the streets to protest without the government opening fire is because they don't know if the old lady on the bench has a Glock 19 in her purse. The government should fear the people. Not the other way around.
