I started all the way in denial like the euphoric New Atheist neoliberal I was at the turn of the century.
Now I don't even like to talk to people that aren't at least at the depression stage of this meme.
Well I grew up in a neocon house so I began in an even further place than the denial state. But I know y’all hate this but it seriously took me joining them army to get me in the acceptance stage. As a Latino who grew up in a upper middle class family with weird conservative connections, I feel like I would have taken Candace Owen’s or Miles whatever his name is spot if I stayed a chud. I sometimes wonder if I became some conservative mouthpiece then joined the army, if I would have been Pat Tillmaned by some fellow chud.
The bargaining phase could also include "humane capitalism" and "social democracy".
I have always said that I would like communism. That being said, it took me my entire life to back away from the talking point of 'communism in theory' as opposed to learning history, theory and the development of AES states to clarify and hone those ideas.
I skipped bargaining and anger. I want to say I went straight from denial to depression
I started in acceptance.
Capitalism is defective. And I have never held any thoughts on the matter otherwise. A fundamental belief in capitalism never formed in the first place.
