  • I was part of it in the sense that I thought what they were saying was true but never participated in anything because I was a child and not on social media at all.

    I was 13ish when my dad started talking about politics with me and I listened to him because he was the “cool parent”. When GG started he would share videos with me and the alt right pipeline took hold from there. I was in deep enough I watched sargon religiously for reference.

    I realized that I was trans for the first time around here. The self hatred lead me into isolating myself further and pushing that deep down to the point I only remembered that after I rediscovered a journal my parents tried to have me use for stress. I was homeschooled and basically completely isolated so it got worse from there. I would have called myself an MRA for a while. I lurked in a lot of the places they gathered and absorbed basically everything as fact. I only really started working to “deprogram” myself after I realized I was trans again and started watching Blair white. The YouTube algorithm did probably the only good thing that it had done that whole time and recommended Contrna Points. From there I started actually looking into the things that were being said and not just taking what they were saying as fact and they were almost entirely bullshit. from there I started looking at different political ideologies and was figuring out who I was. I have to actively work against a lot of the thinking that was so deeply ingrained in me. I know there’s really no excuse for it but I do try to be a better person than I was at that point.
