There is a lot of answers but if I'd say just one it would be rejecting the current institutional power. At least right now in our time period. Fully rejecting the imperial state, no matter how much they potentially benefit from it seems like a solid transition

we are all lib so let's not gatekeep what leftist™️ actually is. I guarantee you were a lib once too(still are, but once too.)

    I think the tipping point for me was when some liberal podcaster couple I was listening to a podcast by a liberal couple and they said something along the lines of "black people know when to sit down and wait their turn" during some of the black community protests against police violence that had been happening pre-BLM.

    It was a very unsettling, "are we the baddies" moment.

    Edited in that I was listening to a podcast an not talking to people who made podcasts.

      I applaud your incredible restraint for not decking them in the face on the spot for that

            I definitely had to pause the episode and have a good LONG think...
