    Weird, I don’t think I can just change my beliefs and ideology on the spot like that.

    Wtf is wrong with liberals?

      They're not actually going to change. They're using pushback against liberalism as an excuse for continuing to be a liberal.

      Like when conservatives say "I used to be liberal but then LGBT folks made me right-wing".

      On some level, their worldview is being challenged so they retreat back into what they already believed as a defense.

        My two favorite candidates are Elizabeth Warren and Tulsi Gabbard, and you've alienated me from your movement.

      They don't exist in the same reality we do, their material conditions put them on the side of capital by default usually so they just have to decide if they ever want to go full class traitor or remain reserve reactionaries.

      They have the liberty to adopt ideology an a trendy aesthetic rather than an advocacy for their own survival.
