I used to be alt/ far right, I've been chudified from /pol/ since circa 2015. I used to hate transgenders, LGBTQ+, drug addicts and other "degenerates", especially since I was 14-18 years old (which are quite impressionable ages) and was a diehard natsoc.
Now I identify as apolitical or as someone taking a third position away from the dichomatic "left vs right". It's not very nuanced and quite absurd to think that you can group everyone's political positions and moral frameworks into "left or right wing". The reality is that it's "rich (elites) vs humanity". "left vs right" is just a ploy to keep us fighting each other.
I hate conservatives (who only conserve Israel and the bank accounts of the elites) and the left (who force elite mandated progressive imperatives on everyone). Both sides are equally worthless as each other.
If I had to label myself now I would consider myself a libertarian (socially) and a socialist (economically). People have a right to live their lives the way they want without fear, as long as it doesn't directly affect others. If you want to live in a traditional family you should be able to do that, if you want to be gay or transgender you should have the right to do that too. Ultimately I am pro-choice: people can choose how they live (or end) their lives because everyone is different and no law from the government can be inclusive / representative of everyone.
Worrying about politics is also stupid, it's just a performative circus (that you have no input in) which slowly destroys itself. Take for instance the recent increase in censorship (UK, AU, Russia VPN ban), these nations think that by enacting these laws they help censor their population, it has the opposite effect. Proxies (shadowsocks), obfuscation, tunnels, encryption, tor/i2p use will surge - and before long these nations will realise they've dug themselves a grave. They have inadvertently radicalised their own populations and made them use technologies which the government has 0 ability to regulate or censor.
In a way I think the current political climate is good, it's pushing people away and eroding trust in traditional power structures (institutions/ governments) and people will realise that left and right wing people are very similar to one another. Most gen Z are also quite open minded and tolerant of others so so think the future will be bright if we continue dismantling exploitative corporations/ power structures.
If people just started loving other people the world would be a better place, and being right and left wing doesn't let you do that. (๑′ᴗ‵๑)Ｉ Lᵒᵛᵉᵧₒᵤ♥
They can't make me do shit. I'll be so insufferable they'll kill me to remove the stress.
