What radicalized you?

Assuming you’re an anarchist or otherwise leftist radical, what radicalized your position?

For me it was a combination of seeing the rampart corruption of the Greek state and the sloth and hypocrisy of the KKE in my own family. Then afterwards it was the alienation of my own wage-slavery.

    Had a period of mental breakdown where I concluded that there was something either psychologically wrong or ideologically wrong with myself. Started questioning most of my thoughts and what I could trust. Slowly built out political views I felt aligned with my core values.

    A trust of friends and chosen family were the foundation. That built out into being politically anti-authoritarian and anti-fascist. Gradually turned into believing Marx’s proposed issues with capitalist society and some of Foucault’s teachings about resisting authority (not so much their other stuff).

    I eventually became closer friends with a punk and have gotten to hear of anarchism throughout history and the current anarchist influences in various other movements.

    My views of anarchism are still mostly vague. I’m still focusing more on becoming a more functional person and growing the communities I’m apart of, so more thorough research and understanding takes a backseat for now.
