I can't name a specific event, it's really just been a fluid process as I've learned more over the years. Historical racism, current racism, classism, imperialism, anti-democracy, etc. - just every thing I've learned shows how inherently and uniquely corrupt this country is.

Maybe something of a sizeable part was learning about how the US actually fervently prevents world governments from being influenced or controlled by democratic means, rather than stepping in to protect democracy as a principle, like ever. It's just an excuse they use to do the opposite.
