It ever occur to you people can change their minds?

If someone who was a misogynistic, homophobic, pro-war, Christian Right winger omnivore can change into a feminist, pro-equality, peacenik atheist socialist vegan, then why can't this change too?

45. A shift from uber-conservative to progressive, that quickly, is very unusual.

I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but I am saying that such a shift is rare in the extreme. And the profound dietary shift on top of everything else, why, that's "hen's teeth" territory.

I've always been a Democrat, but I've known a few people who have seen the light after years on the right. It's usually a gradual, evolutionary process. They change their mind on one thing. Then another. Then, gradually, something else. Once they realize they're more on our team than their old alliances, they start to open their minds. It takes a long while, usually.


someone outed their troll.

er... mole.
