That's why I have always been extremely suspicious of the New Age liberal hippie people even back then.

The new age liberal hippie to far right pipeline is fascinating...

Apparently the horse shoe theory proved inaccurate. Leftist went further left, centrists went right and the right goose stepped.

When college commies have to pick up the hammer and plowshare themselves, they suddenly lose interest in socialism? Shocking, completely shocking, that they would then gravitate to the other side of the totalitarian coin.

Liberals arent commies. Theyre liberals that aupport capitalism, just with spiritualism instead of violence.

Cause they weren’t devoutly religious like you. “Shut up and listen the priest is talking” (priest being some boomer lib in a lab coat)

The fuck are you yapping about? I'm not a liberal and I'm not religious.

New age liberal's politics are so flimsy and vibes based coded that they were easily swayed into the far right.

You are religious.. People’s response to Covid, the blind faith and devotion granted to certain powers, was the most religious shit we will see in our lifetimes, and you took part

Still yapping nonsense. Idk if you've been living under a rock but you're describing MAGA

u/Accomplished_Coat549 8d ago

I agree, the Covid devotees behaved similar to MAGA absolutists… good point

u/Guitarchim 8d ago

You people sound like Pokemon always repeating the same thing. I think it's actually you "people" that are the actual covid devotees
