Yeah it really is, and it’s really easy to get caught up in false consciousness along the way, but that’s just how you learn. You probably wouldn’t be surprised how many times I ended up hanging out with neoliberals thinking they were cool only for them to surprise me with outright nazi levels of racism just out of nowhere. Yeah, those are not fond days. Learned the hard way that just because people are cool with what you believe in doesn’t mean that they’re good and in fact are probably hiding something extremely evil from you. It’s why I push people on their contradictions, I want the mask to come off so I know if i’m actually on the right path or if it’s just another evil neoliberal server like that was.

Well, we should all hopefully move left over time, unlearning is a life long process.
