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.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
