        Its so obvious looking back on it. I was sucked in for a bit as a teen. The fashy dudes who quickly attached themselves to it made even young conservative me dislike the movement. I fairly quickly dropped it, slowly became a leftist, and now realize it was all basically made up to radicalize me and my peers. It was funny hearing about people like Steve Bannon from it, then seeing him help elect a president, and having to talk about him in an ethics class. Truly proof that this timeline is scuffed.

          I just remember being in it for a bit but then at some point was like "hmmm, these guys who care about 'ethics in video game journalism' also seem to think police killing black people is justified every single time" and it shook me out of it.

          I was never that right-wing to begin with though. Maybe "anti-SJW liberal" at worst.
