Okay so super long ago i was like 13 or 14, when I was raised by my extremely reactionary parents and I was exposed to 4chan on a very regular basis, I took "the bell curve" at face value and literally believed it. I even talked about it. I think i saw it on fox news when i was a kid or somwthing, but i dont know. My god I can barely think about it now, just makes me :cringe: so hard. Serioisly i wish i had never had this By like 10th or 11th grade I started to get into the libertarian phase (no, not pedophelia), where I was "socially liberal fiscally conservative". Had some banger takes like the government should privatize social security and stuff.

When I left my house and wasn't subjected to Fox News for 4 hours a night, I finally started having halfway decent liberal takes. I didn't like Obama because he didn't end the Afghanistan war, he supported Saudi in Yemen, he didn't succeed on Obama care at all. At this time I'm also exposed to some community radio stations that pull me quite a bit left. Start learning about the drug war, FBI bullshit in black communities, had a general fuck cops streak.

then bernie came around and I think I remember saying "universal Healthcare won't work" basically repeating fox news propaganda I mindlessly internalized from when I was a kid.

The very last ultra liberal act i did was something related to mueller.. I went to a mueller related protest, and some guy told me to read Anarchism Works by Peter gelderloos. I read that and fell into the leftist hole and have been here ever since. So, thank you to the agitator at that protest.
