      And how would you go about getting someone to recognize the fascists they’re standing next to for what they are in such a situation?

            Not for me it wasn’t. I was a comfortable (but disgruntled) liberal before stumbling on CTH years and years ago (this is a new handle I made early this year). Maybe I was further along in my journey and was already primed for it but I connected with the vibe immediately. That was when I actually started my leftist academic journey in earnest and started participating/contributing to local groups/orgs.

            The shitposts got me to read more books and do more stuff than being disappointed by the democratic party for years by myself ever did.

              I’m a big enough person to admit I’m not always right.

              It is a turn off for me though. I prefer to build up and encourage and to have the same energy around me.
