I think this Renee Good thing has sincerely broken my wife’s brother’s brain. He was never a Trump supporter, but not really political, either, kind of a vague lib. But after this, he’s been sending meme after meme and clip after clip to my wife talking about how much ICE and cops suck and stuff, each one getting increasingly rage filled.
Anyone else got any fun examples of seeing your lib, or even chud, friends, family, or coworkers getting increasingly radicalized? (In a good way, this is /c/bloomer)
My wife will waver from being a tankie that knows the American narrative around Stalin is bullshit, to backsliding into some soft liberalism during peak election season. She’s really busy and doesn’t always have the mental space to ponder the connections between capitalist production, our social/legal order, and each new horror you see in the daily news, but this shooting has felt really tangible (she knows someone who knew Renee Good very well) to her and gave her a serious comnunist brainworm infestation.
Our breakfast conversation was like this: Wife -
Me - 
I’m sorry her and her friend had to go through this.
