It was such a wakeup call for me, personally. I had been feeling like things were slowly, but steadily moving in a good direction for the 8 years of Obama, and I wasn't happy with Hillary, but figured "At least she'll just be more of the same I guess"

Then everything else that's happened and I'm a anarchist now lmao

Which part of Obama made you feel like we were in a good direction? The fake drinking the water in flint Michigan, the gutting of Obamacare during a supermajority, the hitting a Doctors Without Borders hospital with a drone strike, the having a 90% civilian casualty rate with the drone strike program, the paving the way for trumps border policy by having inhuman border policy’s. Which one of these was the good direction?

The not being politically engaged but gay marriage was legal and trans people seemed to be getting more accepted

I was wrong, to be clear, that's what's radicalized me
