But when I talk to him, he actually is in agreement with a lot of my points when I explain them to him

see that's the problem, is they're not retarded, but they're stuck

because in the city

So I’ve talked about it with another friend of mine and we both think it’s the people around him that influence him into progressivism

you think like them or you're hitler

The echo chamber expands itself

"this should be free, like wtf, why dont they fix this shit, it's 2018 people, like wtf?"

Because if you aint part of their cabal you are shunned

And people don’t like that

@Deleted User Sounds like Kaden lol

I’m experiencing it as well sometimes but I just don’t care enough

and so there could be 1 person in a group who's hard left, and the rest are actually normal, but the other 9 go through all the motions of being hard left for fear that the other 9 are all also hard left

@Angus no I think you’d need a majority of real hard leftists

Eventually they start believing their own bs

college is the perfect place for that

Thing is, I’ve talked to a lot of people on my uni campus and turns out a lot of them are perfectly rational people who share a lot of my viewpoints

it should be mandatory for all the city slickers to spend a year on a farm at some point during their formative years

But they don’t dare talk about it in the open and they were genuinely surprised to see me actually speak out

get learned on reality

So my take on it is that the progressivists have a shadow grip on the society

Or in this case the uni

seize the means of education

People are legit afraid that if they speak normal rational shit they get hate mobs of leftists after them

yeah, i was thinking yesterday, how in like 2004 they were pushing for tolerance, just innocent little tolerance
and now look at the shit they are demanding

And they’re not entirely wrong about that

we should never give an inch to these people

I assume you’ve heard about tucker carlson’s antifa incident yesterday?

yup

Was talking to this guy in my class about it and his opinion on it was

https://bigthink.com/paul-ratner/34-years-ago-a-kgb-defector-described-america-today

Well he deserves it because he spews hatred

I like how this site entirely misrepresents what he said

and makes it look like trump is the product

not them

So I ask him why the fuck is this warranted in any case even IF tucker carlson spews hate?

If the right started bashing against obama’s door or any other democrat’s door the outrage would be immense

i went to look for reddit threads about tucker, and they were all downvoted to hell, and the comments were calling him racist that he deserves it, and that it should happen more often
scary stuff

Tbh I don’t even like calling it right since the political spectrum’s definitions vary from country to country
