…whether it was by a cult, by propaganda, by an algorithm, etc…

And did the person ever recover from it?

    Happened recently actually.

    TW: Talks of SA, Maga

    Tap for spoiler

    In class we somehow got into a debate of politics and it went as you expect. Teacher asks if abortion should be legal, which she agrees but the two guys in the class disagree. The idiot guy starts arguing that the anti abortion laws are warnings for “”““the girls who can’t keep their legs shut””“”. Even when the teacher tried to give examples of rape cases, he just kept repeating it like he was right. The girl, which I’ll call Jessy, tore his shit up. Teacher stops the debate and we take a break. I have a lot more respect for Jessy.

    I sincerely don’t understand how someone can be that fucking deluded, and not see a problem with it.
