Fuck me I just looked at the first posts when I first found the sub and was beginning to be de-libbified, why was I such a lib holy shit goddamn. Truly humbling. I don't deserve to post on here.

Warren apologia when she applauded the destruction of socialism ughhhh

"Moderates are good because they are trying to change the system from within which is naturally strategically superior"
one of my first posts was "man warren is disappointing me rn D:" lmaooooooooo
I promise you that is MILES better than the bullshit I was on about.
I don't even think Warren stanning is the dumb part, it's just the complete lack of materialism.
But this actually presents a really interesting idea - what shifted me hardcore to the left was not the memes about John Brown or anything, it was the "read theory" memes. I was like pff okay since you're all going on about this sure, I'll read this "manifesto" thing and this "Lenin" guy just so I can dunk on u tankies.
Though honestly the Bolivian coup was a big one factor as well.
I had never come within 100 yards of socialism when suddenly I found myself on r slash chapo trap house, I just started absorbing absolutely everything and practicing stuff, by day 3 I was calling everyone else smooth brained libs :lenin-shining:
It took me a solid few months of posting daily & talking to my DSA homies to get anywhere near there.
it was just me mirroring what I saw, trying on the persona of the dirtbag left tbh
pretty quick I decided I could lose the dirtbag and keep the left and be happy as a clam :)
