This keyboard justice warrior thinks he’s serving justice

So apparently this social justice warrior @jasondeslin doesn’t believe people are capable of growth or changing their views. They come across as very closed-minded. In their view, anyone who was ever a Republican is permanently labeled a Nazi.

I don’t share my story for praise—I share it to show that people *can* change.

I was raised in a very conservative Christian household where I was told what to think and believe. I grew up hearing that Democrats were destroying America and that being gay was a sin, so yes, I was homophobic. I believed “All Lives Matter” because I didn’t yet understand what “Black Lives Matter” actually meant. I was fed Republican talking points from a young age, so naturally that shaped how I saw the world.

Am I proud of those beliefs now? Of course not.

When I was old enough to vote, I voted for McCain. Looking back, I do wish I had taken the time to educate myself sooner. It wasn’t until I joined the military and got out on my own that I really started thinking independently. As I continued my education, I became more open-minded—but I still didn’t engage much with politics and even stopped voting for a while because I fell into the “both sides are the same” mindset.

Over time, though, my perspective kept evolving. I started questioning everything. I eventually walked away from religion because it no longer made sense to me. I became supportive of people living their lives how they choose and grew to be pro-choice.

Then Trump emerged, and that’s when things really clicked for me. Seeing how people rallied behind him despite his behavior made me take a harder look at everything. I’ll admit, I didn’t know enough at first and still didn’t vote when I should have. That’s on me. But I did learn, I did change—and I made sure to show up and vote against him.

People can grow. People can change. Writing them off forever only ignores that reality.

May get downvoted to hell but despite being a liberal, this kind of behavior is toxic and I do consider myself liberal because of what I now believe.

TLDR: Justice warrior doesn’t think people can change.
This is just my story of how I was once a republican but completely changed my view.

Edit: looks like keyboard warrior tried to comment but was unable to as his comments do not appear. Guess I have a stalker now. Keep trying because I don’t have anything to prove to anyone but will continue fighting fascism and this toxic mindset. I’m proud I voted Democrat and even if toxic people like this don’t think people can change then that’s their problem. Doesn’t excuse my mindset in the past but I know I’m doing the right thing now. And stop using autism as an excuse to justify your shitty behavior. I’m also on the spectrum but choose to hear people’s mindsets to better understand.
