can-i-make-image-descriptions: pengychan:adeleneblack:this is also how i became a leftist after being raising very traditional/conservative/catholic tbhhearing them break down ‘bad’ leftist ideas and i was just sitting there waiting for the bad part that didn’t come…and i’m like….yes? you should probably give free lunches to kids when their parents can’t afford to feed them dinner? why do you not want this?trying to figure out politics was me just moving further to the left the more i learned about pretty much every single issue because of the traditional/catholic parts of my upbringing which is why i’m so baffled that so much of my family falls much more red than blue and i’ll probably never understand how that happenedi’ve had family straight up ask me why i support programs like free lunch and i had to explain that i support them because they taught me that i should care about other people and try to make the world a better place and the golden rule…they never seem to have an answer for when i ask them back why they don’t support those same programs [Image IDs/ Image #1—Tweet from The Irony Giant (@/ PrettyBadLefty) reading: Some of my best ideas for leftist policies come from the irrational fears shared by conservatives on twitter tbh. They be like “Leftists want the post office to also sell weed and make mail characters deliver it” and you gotta jot that down.
