Yes when Nelson Mandela was freed. Everyone said and still do say he was a hero but he wasn’t .... he murderer people and imo was equally as bad as his oppressors. So yeah when I hear people saying Mandela is so wonderful and godly I say erm nope he wasn’t. Martin Luther king was cooler and a better man.
I started drifting right after seeing how hypocritical the left actually was. 'They' were the rude ones. 'They' were the violent ones. 'They' left as big or bigger carbon footprints and littered at rallies. 'They' are less compassionate in action. They are very compassionate with their words, but their actions don't jive. They are the ones who vandalize and commit arson. A good many left wing activists are worse about everything they scream and cry about than the people 'they' are pointing 'their' fingers at. This Hollywood thing is a perfect example. The people screaming "MISOGYNY" are more guilty of actual misogyny than the people they are screaming at. The ongoing double standard and hypocrisy is the event that made me switch sides.
More than changing my views, the war in Yugoslavia and the bombings on Serbia made me realise two things. 1- NATO was (is) the bully of the world. 2- The way western media treated Serbia, making them look like the absolute evil whereas Croats and Bosniacs were heroic fighters and innocent sufferers made me see their bias and how they do not care about the truth, but try to manipulate our minds and create an opinion.
@SW-User In my view, Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are the only two American politicians who have challenged that. Obama was always a pro-establishment moderate.
