Peer pressure/Tribal Unity is SO powerful. I was a Democrat until 2019. I don’t brag about that, or my change.

No, you were sold a bill of goods, that the Democrats are the party of Joe Average, the working man, and the GOP was the party of the Elite. The Dems pulled off the biggest con job in US history, and we are seeing the re-alignment of the parties now because of the lies that have been promulgated for 70 years. MAGA vs, Know-Nothings.

I saw the change with Bill Clinton in the ‘92 race when he was hawking the DLC (Democratic Leadership Council). I went to an event with him and at the time was fighting him about Mena and the whole “Compromised” Terry Reed thing . As soon as I shook his hand I knew he was a rat. Little did I know that his “Stand By Your Man” wife would become the biggest rat of all.

Indeed, Mary Rose. For me it was a bit of a painful transition, oscillating between the joy and amazement of discovery, and the angst of information overload and feeling forlorn. Admittedly, it's only been about 6 years since I was "red-pilled". The journey continues.

It was easy for me when I began to see what hypocritical liars democrats are.

Just like in the Matrix when Neo learns the real world is an illusion.

Well you are honest and authentic, obviously, and I bet it was diflicult socially, economically even to make the conversion-so you aren't a coward either.
