When you began to see the world differently ? (I mean politically, ideologically and morally wise)

About a year or two into Trump's presidency, when I saw IRL family and peers along with online ones polymorph into unrecognizable ideologues from TDS. Same goes with the small social media presence I kept. The hyperbole from celebs I used to follow made me very sour of elitist Hollywood and Los Angeles types. Then came the transgenderism craze where even I, a gay man, did not have permission to speak or question how strange and intrusive T had become. Along with the new progressive flag, the "don't say gay" bill media hoax, the drag queen story time child grooming...

Oh, and let's not forget the destroyer of my faith in humanity that was COVID! Oh, man. That I was so questioning of mask-wearing and so quick to dismiss it as a disease that would not do jack squat to me as a healthy and able-bodied human being, and people pretty much treated me like they were bodysnatchers that they would point and shriek at me for being a selfish mask and jab refusenik. I went from optimistic and starry-eyed about the improving state of my life around 2018-2019 to having some long term plans and relationships utterly dashed in the last few years alone. Now I'm just so jaded and cynical, trying to keep my head down, hoping that one day those who wronged me for daring to think differently get their devil's due.
 
The circus surrounding the Travon Martin case was what really woke me up to the insanity we see today, I watched the community around me go from probably the closest we've ever been to being color blind to very quickly becoming polarized. I have an old Facebook that I barely use and the few times I've checked it all my old highschool classmates are insane far left, depressed, or trooned out. Trump just cranked it all up to 10 with a lot of people I knew going over the top, and Covid cranked it up even more with those that remained also going over the top. Covid at least taught me that I need to be self reliant as almost everyone around me can't even take care of themselves let alone help others.

It fucking sucks bro
 
When I was more naive, I used to believe what is now the woke left were the side that represented freedom and progress. But since the '00s when I used to believe that, I've come to see wokeism as a toxic, anti-human cult. One that I've heard is really a means to an end: break down what's left of modern "society" and remaking into a miserable cybernetic hive lorded over by an upper class who lives like feudal lords. How woke-run cities are decaying crime-ridden crapholes doesn't quite refute that.
Also sometime before Current Year, I thought a one-world government was a good thing, and I used to believe "Whig History" - that history was a single one way path of "progress" to some cosmic "end of history" goal. Guess I took "Star Trek" too seriously there. Any remnant of that worldview has been completely washed away by the rising tide of woke insanity. I was also more of a technophile, but tech oversaturation of Current Year with the "cultures" of "smartphones" and "social media" pushed me to be more of a Luddite.

Oh, and let's not forget the destroyer of my faith in humanity that was COVID!
2020 was the cherry on top.

I used to be very left wing. Believed in the good intentions of government, etc.
Well, child support cured me of that. But not because I was a deadbeat. Never missed a payment.
My bank account got frozen.... about three times due to errors on the part of government bean counters.
Got so bad my ex wife who don't really like me much actually contacted them to say to stop fucking with my bank account.
They terminated her child support order for her efforts. I kept paying cash until my boy turned 18 regardless because that's just the right thing to do.
Its funny to laugh at the working man railing against the government, believing he somehow just hates poor people.
Ain't true though.
 
1. Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown were the first stirrings for me.

Y'know how the media omitted the part of George Zimmerman's 911 call where the dispatcher asked for a description of Saint Skittles, making it looke like Zimzam said "he's black" for no reason? I learned about that part, ironically, from a sociology professor (who was surprisingly kinda based and not one of the typical moonbats of that field of study).

When the Michael Brown shit was going down, I remember someone on the radio saying, "one side or the other is lying, and the city is burning for it". Lo and behold, "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" was complete bullshit, and the Gentle Giant's blood was inside of Wilson's squad car.

They lied, and the city burned. And they never apologized, or even conceded, that they had been proven wrong.

2. Working a corporate job where I had to babysit whiny, lazy, rude union assholes and got shit on by asshole management for their fuckups. I used to be a lot more outgoing and friendly, until I ran into people who are as friendly as rattlesnakes for no good reason at all.

3. Once upon a time, I paid money to subscribe to the Washington Post just to shitpost in the comments.

The screeching shitlib mongoloids who read that jizzrag make Twitter and Reddit look reasonable. They have no sense of humor or goodwill whatsoever. When I saw their comments, I realized that liberals utterly despise me, everyone I love, and everything I hold dear, and would destroy all of it given the chance.

And that's even without reading the columns of sniveling shitstains like Max Boot or Philip Bump, or that odious rusalka Jennifer Rubin.

Reading WaPo radicalized me. Their MovieBob-esque tirades convinced me to become a gun owner, to stop treating liberals as my fellow Americans, and start treating them as my mortal enemies.

Because I know my contempt for liberals, strong as it may be, is nothing compared to the thermonuclear hatred they have for me.
 
First I noticed the left gradually purity-spiraling away from me to a point I didn't want to follow.

In 2015 the refugee crisis hit Europe and Germany in particular – that's when I first really realized that the "professional" media is not only lying by omission, but consciously lying to my face.

The refugee crisis also opened my eyes to the Überfremdung (literally "over-foreignization") and the overall demographic shift: There are parts in my town where you can't see a single German in a crowd and quite many shop signs are written in Turkish/Arabic/whatever only. Hearing my native language in my home country is becoming rarer by the day…

But the final straw that broke the hamster's back was Covid. I'm not anti-vax in general, I just didn't want to take the mRNA jab but was willing to wait for a traditional vaccine. Although I wasn't convinced that Covid was that big of a deal, I took all the precautions to protect others for their ease of mind. Still the media called me a conspiracy theorist and Nazi, friends and colleagues started to avoid me like Covid was my fault, my employer threatened to fire me, politicians called me a social pest and even wanted to bar me from shopping groceries. That's when I decided to never get the vax and dissociate from "their" society.
 
It was around the time when The Last of Us Part II leak happened, and it's release. The sheer lengths that some people went to defending that game, by calling people bigots, transphobes, homophobes, anti-Semites, Islamophobes, (even though there wasn't any Muslim representation in that game, to my knowledge) Q-Anon, 1/6er, Canada "Freedom Convoy" Terrorist, inbred Republican, anti-vaxxers (I'm sure that some Stans made COVID comparisons to justify why they think Joel doomed humanity), and any other problematic group, just for not liking the game, was insane. It really brought to my mind, the whole "My way or the high way", and the "I'm right, you're wrong" mindset in regards to political beliefs, that anyone that has beliefs that are opposite to you in anyway, is a threat that needs to be purged.

You could also add any other media that has rabid fans that try way too hard to defend a bad movie/game/TV show series from it, when previous ones used to be good, to this list as well. The Last Jedi comes to mind.
 
It goes back pretty damned far for me.

You whippersnappers won't remember Bushitler, but I do. Back in the day, George H. W. Bush was the worst thing since Adolf Hitler for.... what exactly? To this day, I still don't know what he did that merited the comparison (besides starting a generational war in the Middle East, but that would be more comparable to the Soviets than Germany.) This was the first rumblings for me.

Things really took off during the tenure of Barak Obama. It wasn't that there was a black man in the White House, but the accusations that any dislike of him was due solely to racism. Simply disagreeing with Obamacare meant you were no different from the Grand Wizard of the KKK. Then, when the Tea Party rose, there was that black congressman who insisted Tea Partiers were spitting on him. Andrew Breitbart offered something like $10,000 to anyone who could prove the truth of this claim, and to this day nobody has claimed the bounty. That, I think, was when I began seeing the world differently.

Then, like everyone said, was Gamergate. The refugee crisis and the fact that asking them to behave in a civilized manner was now racist. Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown. The rise of Trump and the collective meltdown everyone had. The increasingly blatant lies of a bitter, hostile media that was furious that history was refusing to fall on what they narrowly considered "the right side." COVID, Saint George Floyd of Fentanyl, Biden, and the increased stupidity of the world at large. And that's not counting the devolution of entertainment, the slavish worship of Disney, the transgender movement and the horrors that have come with it, and more. The lunacy has grown exponentially since 2014 or so. I guess this is that new normal everyone was talking about in 2020.

And the great reset has yet to come.

"Madness is something rare in individuals — but in groups, parties, peoples, and ages, it is the rule."

Weirdly specific, but in my preteen years I used to be a moderator for an obscure game forum during my leg recovery. My immaturity led me to a faggy powertrip which led me to getting stripped of my mod status. I was naïve. I trusted myself to be a good and responsible person, but the moment I had some power I became gay as fuck. And in retrospect this taught me to not trust anyone in authority, including myself. If a little preteen has their switch turned on with some shitty moderator powers, imagine what what it's like to lead the WHO.

Oh, and Pizzagate. That was a rabbit hole that fucked me up even more. The whole thing was an exercise of archiving the perverted and degenerate art/photos of the elite mixed with the distraction circus of media coverage. The coded language within Clinton's leaked emails (the thing that started the conspiracy) was basically ignored by the media in favor of demonizing any speculation of elite pedophilia because some retard when full glowy. One of the shittiest examples of a coverup I can think of, really.
 
Another thing that has changed recently is how I've come to see that the invention of agriculture may not have been such a good idea to the species. Of course, not all things of civilization are bad.

Although despite having some more leftist views in the past, I think I'm still around centrist now as I was back then, even though it seems the SJWs call anyone who doesn't believe SJW BS "alt-right". So there's a thing about my worldview that hasn't changed?

The sheer lengths that some people went to defending that game, by calling people bigots, transphobes, homophobes, anti-Semites, Islamophobes, (even though there wasn't any Muslim representation in that game, to my knowledge) Q-Anon, 1/6er, Canada "Freedom Convoy" Terrorist, inbred Republican, anti-vaxxers (I'm sure that some Stans made COVID comparisons to justify why they think Joel doomed humanity), and any other problematic group, just for not liking the game, was insane.
That confirms that SJWs use such buzzwords as soy ways to say "wrongthinker" - they really do fixate on groupthink "community"...

All the soy ways of saying the same thing - "wrongthink" - that I heard and can recall:

- alt-right
- bigoted
- colonialist
- conspiracy theorist
- disinformation
- fake news
- far right
- fascist
- incel
- Kiwi Farms
- marginalizing
- misinformation
- misogynist
- Nazi
- racist
- Republican (?)
- right wing
- science denier
- sexist
- toxic masculinity
- transphobic
- Trump
- Trump supporting
- vaccine hesitant
- white supremacist

(I heard the MSM and "social media" try to "program" or "socially engineer" by repeating such phrases. It can get tiresome.)

There's "anti-vaxxer" and "toxic" too.

The 2008 housing crisis made me realize the government will gladly throw you under the bus to bail out companies because fuck you, thats why.
It made me realize the government does not give a shit about you, or your family.

And the Uvalde shooting made me go from "We should put a sliver of trust in our cops" to "Fuck the police force, I will keep my interest safe myself"
 
2019, few years after the immigration disaster. I was a blue pilled person, started reading Kiwi Farms in 2016 that slowly steared me towards right, but ultimately the invasion of my country, suddenly seeing niggers and ragheads in my little area I have lived my whole life and then city, utterly broke me.
I'm hoping I can move into some small racist village, I feel so devastated.
 
Around 5 or 6 years ago or so.

Before that, I was just a filthy zoomer with bad tastes in entertainment. But more and more, my tastes started shifting because people started pandering to black people and the LGBT, and there was a noticeable drop in quality. I wasn't an American, so I didn't care about their politics at all, so I started wondering why things were becoming so bad.
 
Migrant crisis 2015-16.
Before that I was ignorant normie. But during this period I started to care, because Germany, France and UK started to try to coerce my country to take their Illegals to "share" burden despite still having open door to new kebabs.
I become curious what is going on in these countries and in the West in general and started to visit English sites. There
I learned about western progressives.
And their Commie worship, modern feminism, Trannies, blm, Genderspecials xer xem....
My conclusion was many of them lost their minds.

It fucking sucks bro

COVID truly was an eye opener, but not for the reasons they claim it was.

We saw how these people are really like and how open arm-ed they are with big government having the type of control it shouldnt ever have, even those that once claimed "big gov bad".

It reminds a bit of the classic line "In their final moments people show you who they really are.", while it wasnt the literal case of that, a lot of these people legit believed their lives were threatened and they were quick to drop their morals and ideals, or rather, the illusion of those, in favor for daddy government to save them. Its just so surreal to see liberals and dems demand for more government intervention when they always built their identities on government control being a bad thing. It really shows that these people cannot be believed nor trusted, ever, especially in a tough situation that requires integrity, loyalty and courage.

But I guess its the classic situation of them not hating the whip, simply that they are not the ones wielding it.

The people following those did lose their minds, assuming they ever did.

The people in charge tho, didnt, because they are 100% aware of what they are doing.

I always remind people that dem leaders arent as stupid as their voters. They know how to play the politics game and cheat whenever necessary. There is no "losing fairly" for them.

The fucked up thing is that bailing out companies is what probably started, or at least aided, into the neo-feudalism that we are heading towards to today. Made these companies feel like they are unstoppable...and I guess by that point they were.

Part of me wonders if that was intentional or not

Commies are petty backstabbing power hungry assholes by nature. Most "union" fuckheads are.

A lot of these "workers first" types tend to be the pigs from Animal Farm. What they want is to be the ones ontop instead of actually helping workers.
Because I know my contempt for liberals, strong as it may be, is nothing compared to the thermonuclear hatred they have for me.

Like the classic line says

"When we win, dont forget these people wanted you dead and replaced, your children raped and brainwashed and they find it hilarious"

They will ask for mercy and understanding when they would grant us none if the roles were reversed
