Related: About this forumA Recovering MAGA Tells Her Story
?si=ffWfpkd8CtIVdidWReally interesting. I was annoyed by her as she told the tale of her republican beginnings, but as she explained how she learned and grew I ended up with a lot of respect for her.
sadly so many people do not have the innate empathy required and are too comfortable with their bigotries for this to happen for them.

(58,034 posts)2. Thanks so much for posting. The story of the subjects life and how she was influenced...
by wealthy and smug rethugs who thought/think they're smarter than us dummies who root for and want to help people less fortunate...what a tale.
She is why rethugs don't want people to get educated and learn how things work in civics, the courts, politics and who gains power and exercises it.
She finally came to realize how little knew and what a corrupt, extremely flawed moron trump is who is responsible of hunderds of thousands of deaths with his covid bumbling and 'no masks' foolishness.
It finally took the insurrection for her to finally understand.
Kudos to the therapist for being so patient as she slowly drew out the whole story.
Thanks again.
