Hi ex-liberal and ex-fascist, How did you overcome the Red Scare and learn about the truth on the USSR and AES countries? (lemmygrad.ml)

I'd say I only started off as "liberal" in that I believed what every westerner is made to believe by default, that the USSR was a scary place that killed millions and stuff like that. At some point I wondered "Ok but...why was the USSR killing millions?" which is never really explained well in the liberal narrative beyond saying that communism is evil because...well...just cause. Then I actually started learning and that was that. I thinking meeting people on online forums from other countries also helped a lot and helped me learn things that just wouldn't of been possible otherwise.

It's the same as "Source: trust me bro"
