What was your most lib moment before you were radicalized (or at all)?
What was your most lib moment before you were radicalized (or at all)?
I'll start
This is embarrassing but I cried when SHillary lost to Trump.
You're viewing a single thread.
Bought into the logic that it was bad for Trump to meet with
because it would be "legitimizing" the DPRK.Then I actually learned the tiniest bit of Korean history and went "no wait they're mostly right, death to America".
When I was a lib I still "supported" (arguing with my friends about why we shouldn't be killing them) America's enemies and every AES country except DPRK because they were so obviously corrupt and evil that I couldn't ever defend it to my friends. After reading about the beginning of the Korean War I was like "wait so where's the part that justifies U.S. intervention" and kept reading and it wasn't until I reached the part where Douglas MacArthur built a fascist stronghold with the Japanese and started eradicating leftists where I realized "oh this is just like every single other indefensible U.S. intervention I opposed with hindsight". There's a reason your average U.S. history class skims its wars other than like the revolution and WWII lmao
