Heh, looks like I ended up with a bunch of “neocons”!

Your stories about disillusionment with leftism just highlight the fact that it was already entrenched during your formative years and how corrosive it is. Sometimes I wish the current crop of lefties gets their wish and have to live in their kind of paradise for a decade so they can get a dose of it, what it is really like. Of course, somewhere like Baffin Island, so it does not affect normal people. Imagine how they’d be thrilled–they would be able to do peace angels naked in the snow for most of the year!
