    Straight up I was conservative as a young teen, because that’s what EVERYONE was here in Utah when I was in the LDS church.

    Now I just keep floating more and more left as time goes on.

      I went from “socially liberal, fiscally conservative” in high school to liberal to communist to anarchist back to communist now I think I’m democratic socialist in my 30s? Just basic safety nets and unions, please.

      Same homie. I can’t even imagine what it was like to be a leftist after 9/11. The whole fucking country was blood thirsty. Heard my friends say some of the most abhorrent shit, and just brushed it off as patriotism.

      So fucking glad I found my way out.
