I design software, another guy builds it, then I test it. I seem to have a really good intuition for ferreting out the edgiest of edge cases and generating bugs. Pretty sure he hates my guts.

Would people judge me if I ordered a boppy nursing pillow despite not having children and never planing on having children?

I never use /s. /s is the training wheels of online comments. /s is for cowards. Ride or die baby!

If anyone takes me seriously, it's their own damn fault.

Has anybody here actually succeeded in getting an online conservative/right-winger to reflect and legitimately and long term shift their views left?

I grew up believing 9/11 was an inside job and the planes were military cargo ones with missile pods and the purpose was an auto-coup and also a heist of the gold bullion stored in the towers basement, vaccines caused autism and a range of other diseases, and I voted for Clive Palmer (Australia's cheap dollar-store knockoff of Trump).

The turning point for me was getting off 4chan (I went via 99chan which became a nazi site before dying which is not great) , talking to more people besides just my mother and Aunt, and somehow stopping being a contrarian shitgibbon by losing the belief that all politics is irredeemably corrupt and a vote for Clive was a vote for chaos, respectively. I THINK I was looking for a world that was more interesting and made more sense than this one.

Ironically I started my internet life on &TOTSE, which is about as left as Lemmy, but there, I was an antisocial lying troll. Now I am not antisocial anymore.

I still believe that the moon is hollow and inhabited by ancient inbred families of cannibal Reptilians who aim to repopulate the earth but don't have the means to return, but that's fairly harmless IMO.
