    Legit, partially me too. I posted my full story elsewhere in the thread, but the leftists in that sub that pushed back to the DNC shills relentlessly over the years tremendously helped me shake the last bits of my liberal ideology. That and reading all the insane shit Trump did and leftists showing how dems/republicans did most of the same types of shit trump was doing historically, or how they failed to do anything on the real atrocities trump was doing.

    I try and return the favor now by always sourcing and arguing how shitty the dem arguments are for the random lurkers reading. Repeat factual things enough and people will begin to learn and hopefully go down the same paths we did.
