    I have a personal theory that the fashies fucking over the overton window actually goes both ways, as it allows previously "taboo" leftists ideas to be discussed openly in the same way reactionary ideas becomes more widespread. What that means is that talking about abolishing property doesn't sounds that "crazy" to the average folk anymore as they've also heard "similar" inflammatory lines from the right.

      I will say that part of my trip leftward was caused by the republicans calling Romney's healthcare reform "socialism" for ten years after le black democrat stole it. Temporarily rendering it meaningless made it less scary and more interesting.

      my radicalization had far more to do with democrats not fulfilling what i thought were shared values rather than anything the opposition did.
