What radicalized you?

When conservatives attempt to complain about the minimum wage, universal health care, Medicare it seems like their heart is really not into it.

But you know when you see their genuine resentment and toxic grievance surface? When they talk about how liberals make fun of them, when they cry about the liberal chicks who wouldn't date them, when they wail about the supposed smug superiority complex of libs.
 
We all run in different circles, have different experiences etc. Is this a new thing, people getting together talking about how they were radicalized? We hear about how the internet has radicalized people by sending them down these crazy rabbit holes. But are what we would think just “regular” people living their lives now all of a sudden radicalized? Like a new fad or something?

Are all right wingers inarticulate?!
 
What about "the 60's?"

Were the 60s really that radical? I mean outside of some university campuses and some music festivals like Woodstock.

I don't think most of the nation was radically different in 1968 than it was in 1958. Large swaths of the country remained conventional and conservative. I don't see how a radical country could have elected Tricky Dick Nixon in 2968.

I agree. I don't think they've had their heart in it since 2018. That election broke them.

Yeppers...Conservatism is reactionary...that's about all it has going for it since economically, Conservatism is always an unmitigated disaster that requires a liberal to come in and clean the mess up.

I was radicalized by the GOP who stole an election in 2000 and then proceeded to put the worst possible policies in place that produce the worst possible outcomes.

My radicalization wasn't because someone was mean to me once in college.
