I think personally the majority of /pol/ was at some point a leftist, at least that's how it seems to me. I personally when I was in my teenage years would get triggered at any racist remarks and basically sperg out. This was encouraged at my school.
When I discovered /pol/ I was in complete disbelief by how 'racist' you all were, I just couldn't believe that people could think this way. So I shitposted on /pol/ for a few months, and eventually I found posts that I thought were semi-reasonable, I began to see the indoctrination techniques that my school and my community was using to influence me and my friends minds.
TL;DR, what kind of person were you before you found /pol/? I was a rabbid SJW but now I would say I am a rationalist.

still the same person, a bit more cynical with thicker skin.

How is Algeria? I would imagine it is like france. Except nigger.

I was happier and more sociable. Now I am a depressed, irritable person who is extremely anti-social. After I told my frends about my beliefs they called me a prick and left.

I only have a 5-6 really close friends, I slowly began to say increasingly racist things around them. Always as jokes though, now my entire group says oy vey when ever we met each other and we call each other goyim. Basically we shitpost in real life.
The key to the hearts of the massive is though comedy, that is why leftist leaders love late night comedy hosts that spew propaganda.

I grew up a little bit racist, but before /pol/ I never cared about things like the Bilderberg group or the truth about various wars going on, let alone wars of the past. Basically my dislike of niggers was dialled up to 11 and I got redpilled on the globalist jews

I lived in a really white neighbour hood so I never hated none whites, however in sydney it is basically a chinese colony. It was a big wake up call.
I miss the short-lived Shinoa troll
What are you talking about? Majority of /pol/ is still left sided. Most of the countries that post here have all left sided governments.
I was lot more in political right before /pol/. During high school years I me and my mates would often greet each other with nazi salutes and spout anti-minority memes (high tier school so there were no black students and the asians were even more racist than us).

The majority of people grow out of their leftist fairytale beliefs eventually, /pol/ or no /pol/, usually when they get a job and step out of their safe spaces into the real world.
I was always a capitalist, and I usually have to enlighten people how money works.
Here's something i'd love:
>cut social programs
>exploit arbitrage or something, try to produce weapons dirt cheap and sell them at actually competitive prices internationally
>continue using debt levered gdp growth
You might be able to see a 20 trillion dollar economy after 8 years.

Sounds like you were friends with a bunch of bland normies.

I was somewhere between a socialist and a left leaning libertarian before I joined the military. That turned me into a right leaning libertarian.
/pol/ just helped me find sources for my opinions. It did redpill me on Islam, though. Pretty much view it as globally permitted barbarism, now.
/pol/ can't beat me, though. As much SJW shit as I have seen, I'm still very socially liberal. I still believe no one has the right to dictate what a person should be allowed to do. Just leave my guns alone and let the states sort out their own shit.
I always though it odd that Hitler had no reasonable reason to hate the jews. thats what lead me here to find thereason/ I was more shut in and nicer before. But now I honestly don't give a damn and I act as though I'm very confident. I hate myself more now and I'm mean to people but its only because of my own self loating. I simpathise with Gerry Adams now and I also thing an Górta Mór is a funny thing

>>76925992
I was... pretty much the same, except I didn't care about my country as much. You see, when you live in the Czech Republic and don't care about the outside world, you don't even notice how pure and ethnically homogenous it is. It feels normal to you, so you don't focus on it at all. Then I got redpilled in regards to shitskin crime in other countries and realized how lucky we are and that we should strive to preserve this.

I think pol is liberals before they were enriched by the globalist bankers.
Liberal literally means "willing to respect or accept behaviour or opinions different from one's own; open to new ideas."
However modern day liberals are neo facists that hate freedom and free speech, they only live to enable their globalist masters.
I think of myself as a rightwing liberal. I'm open to new ideas as long as they aren't retarded and benefit my nation positive me.
I.E not sweden.
>>76925992
Nothing has changed. I am a refugee from /v/.
Still a leftist but I've grown more to the right on fiscal issues as I contemplate starting my own business(es).
>/pol/ is racist
Um, the term is racial realist, or is that apart of this giant shitpost?
>>76925992
I was left-wing mostly as a default position. I didn't really pay attention to politics and my only news source was watching the Daily Show, plus just about all of my friends who weren't completely apolitical were liberal, so I just kind of went along with it. I wound up voting for Obama twice.
It's mostly been in the last couple of years I've started to realize how full of shit guys like Jon Stewart really are, and how they basically just manipulate huge hordes of people by telling them what to think but doing it in a way that convinces them they're actually thinking for themselves and are intelligent. Nearly all of the liberals I've met are like that, just mindless retards who are too lazy to pay any serious attention but go around repeating whatever half-baked crap they heard Bill Maher or John Oliver or some other faggot said last week and act like they thought of it themselves. Or they don't even discuss anything, they just crack jokes about how stupid and backwards Republicans are.
I wouldn't say /pol/ was what changed me, so much as I started feeling dissatisfied with the way things were and started getting tired of just mindlessly following some bullshit progressive movement for no reason beyond that I didn't want to be called a racist for disagreeing with it. I started coming on /pol/ because I had nowhere else to vent those opinions.
>>76933640
That's how I thought a few years ago man.
>>76925992
I was all aboard the the Anarcho-Capitalist train.
>>76925992
Same person.
I had to find some excuse to post more smug.
