I wanted to dismantle the state for a socialist ideal in at least middle school. I didn’t like punk until freshmen year of high school though, so we all go through changes even if my politics have mostly stayed the same.

Edit: thinking back on it I remember having an anticapitalist moment in 5th grade, Miss Hill’s class so we’ll scale that back to elementary school.

I have a similar story. I’m glad you grew up, and I hope adulthood is treating you well!

They brought in a special teacher for my AP US history, straight from the Masonic lodge i figure.

Made the usual teacher, a liberal guy, take a sabatical year.

Thanks secret government assholes.
