    Being poor and being treated poorly was radicalized. Serving in the military reinforced my world view.

    Somewhere in there, I even considered myself a libertarian. Then I realized how childish they were, learned how manipulated they were by rich, greedy people, and since gone further left than most.

      ^verbatim, same. Libertarian phase ended around 2016, when Trump really opened the can of Nazi worms on the Republican side, which slapped me out of the “bOtH sIdEs aRe tHe sAmE” stupor.

      Haven’t missed an election since, big or small. Solid blue.
