I was always into politics since middle school - I did literally all the nerdy extracurriculars, student govt, etc. It took until college for me to transition from a libertarian (my primary views in HS were anti-war, pro-legalization, and pro-same-sex marriage so libertarians made some sense to my young brain at the time) to soc-dem. Then it took the whole Obama admin for me to realize we needed a major overhaul. By the time Trump won I was full blown ML. What was your journey?
Well I got a masters degree in political science.....
Probably turned into politics in 9th grade when my history teacher opened my eyes to communism and what Marx actually said as opposed to the propaganda I’d constantly been fed growing up in the Cold War.
