I was a lib/centrist during Obama, and I thought that there were "good arguments on both sides". Once Trump gained power I realized that the right was genuinely terrible, and after looking into politics with a mindset other than the "both sides" one, I realized that libs were bad as well, for slightly less horrible reasons. After that, I became distrustful of the US more and more, with me eventually ending up here lol. Not a very cool radicalization story, but still.
