maybe it's a reflection of my own experiences, but i flat-out do not trust raised-by-republicans "leftists" who never had a moderate phase. that moderate phase is integral to unlearning the worst of your parents' republican bullshit. it's only because of that moderate phase that you can allow yourself to genuinely see the flaws in the system and start to reevaluate what you actually believe

jumping right from right-wing to left-wing is like. you are 100% substituting one thing for another, and you are not unlearning those thought processes. you are, as awsten knight would say, overcorrecting, chasing a replacement, and filling the hole with justice, and it's bad, actually.

like he said, hate, violence, and fear will keep you right where they've always wanted you.

substituting one belief system wholesale for another is extremely unhealthy

to a lesser extent, this also 100% applies to ex-evangelicals who convert(ed) to judaism (especially around 2015-2023) without taking a break to sit and process their religious trauma and think about what it is they truly value and believe.

A reminder to the "the American government wouldn't..." crowd. They have. They have made their own internment camps before. They have rounded up innocent citizens and immigrants before. The victims of which are still alive to this day and trying to share their stories with the world, they have been trying to warn us for a long time. George Takei (as seen above) is a famous example of this. He has written about his experiences time and time again, even publishing a book talking about his time in these camps. He may be famous now, but at the time he was just another kid forced from his home. To this day he still firmly dedicates himself to trying to educate and inform people, trying to spread awareness with his platform. The American Government can and will do terrible things. Do not let anyone convince you otherwise.
