    I was raised in your pretty standard Christian conservative household, at least by American standards. Both parents were Republicans, as per usual their politics rubbed off on me growing up. Ended up falling into the alt-right pipeline via Youtube. Started out with libertarianism/ Paleo-conservatism, Ben Shapiro, Steven Crowder, etc. In the end, I considered myself a fascist. Had some pretty racist, and homophobic opinions. Pretty cringe shit looking back on it. Now I’m a Marxist-Leninist and bisexual, people change.

        You have no idea. 18 year old me signed up for a trip to Afghanistan as an Airborne Combat Medic. Got hurt pretty bad and an old Vietnam Vet radicalized me in the VA hospital. So at least you never fucked up that bad.
