Yes, but Reagan was, for all intensive purposes, a Marxist in his younger years.

He was so radical the FBI was tailing him.

Bit of a heel turn

Reminds me an awful lot of myself in during my teenage years.

I mean define teenage

That it was, Sam; that it was.

I'd say from 12-19?

I mean when I was like 13-14 I was the central planner mindset in human form

It started to slope off by the time I was 16, however.

Oh, yes.

As was I.

About the same

Nothing but the purist form of altruism.

The kind that creates a Lenin, a Hitler.

It is interesting to think about how you used to think

And how uninformed I really was, yet thought I knew it all.

The more informed I get the more I know of things I do not know

It certainly is a journey, but you manage to plug the gaps along the way.

I've jumped around on the political spectrum quite a bit

I believe what displaced me from the perspectives I once harbored was direct exposure to the doctrines which motivated the production of the propaganda I had been consuming throughout my younger years.

So, with this, it provided me context.

It's because whenever I realise I'm apart of an ideology I reject it

just three years ago when i was 16 i was most likely a socialist if i actually followed politics

So, this came with my first induction into Sociology, one of my majors when I first began attending college at 16, @Samaritan™.

now im a filthy centrist

Then, I got heavily into economics.

Along with civics.

It was like a cleansing wave washed over me.

she looked pathetic on that stage

I was into both also

Jeremy's one of those rite-whing extremists

I still debate whether centrism is real there is also an ideology at the top of the hierarchy of values

Radical right-wing. So radical I'm a Classical Liberal, and an Objectivist.

<:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

I almost guessed the latter

I'm a classical liberal, Jeremy, that makes us literally Nazis

Didn't you know?

Centrism doesn't exist, Sam.

Yeah my point
