whered you get to be a lefty?
Well I’ve always lived in a liberal household
And I said to my parents one day “Hey wouldn’t it be great if we had no currency” and basically outlined communism
Except like a really shitty version of it
Cuz I was like 8 or 9
yeah
And they told me “that’s communism” and I was like “what no it’s not”
And over time shit just sorta developed
wow you sound quite intelligent im 26 and have a sociology major
Went from a staunch liberal who just listened to my parents to someone who occasionally does research
so i got to read all the naughty marxist shit
Lmao ripp
and came from a commie household
I wish that happened to me ^
Yes i had a very well read father who started talking to me about this stuff from a young young age
Anyways it was basically Liberal (No research) > SocDem (a little research) > flip flopping everywhere (idk it was weird) > Leninist (a little communist research) > Trotskyist (A fuckton of communist research)
yeah I think i went social democrat to i dont know but some sort of futurist communism
but i mainly got interested in the psychology of all of it
I think I was a monarchist for like a few weeks just because I liked the monarchist aesthetic
and the way in which capitalist ideology is present in just about everything
It’s almost surreal
Basically my entire fucking life in 3 words lmao
yeah agreed, mine too
Thats the thing about rejecting fascism
its fucking scarier
it hurts more
Around the time the summer started I had this realization of
“Oh fuck I could die if I go through with this”
And I cried for fucking hours lmao
I freaked the fuck out and finally manned up
it takes a toll
deleting facebook really helps
I never use social media
Checkmate, Zucc
getting away from the conditioning apparatus as much as possible
I think what helps me get over that existential shit is just how radical I’ve become
Because I’m not afraid to admit I’m a bit of a fanatic
Yeah I had that sort of attitude for a lot of my twenties
And so whenever I feel down about that shit I just remind myself
very confrontational about it
