I certainly understand growing up in a family where you only get one side.. the other side is evil and there is ZERO middle ground. Took me a bit longer than her to wake up.. but I certainly learned what not to do with my kids. I am always ok with people growing out of what what taught growing up so good for her.
Seems most people who know him personally get along very well with him so its not exactly telling.
Yeah, as someone from Ohio I completely understand how this can happen. Kids are impressionable and often believe what their parents tell them. Only when you grow up a bit do you see how wrong it was. Unfortunately for some, that moment they see how wrong never comes, and they end up like their parents.
That'll do it.
Land of abortion is murder and diet to hardcore racism.
Even in lexington I'll hear things that are off.
It's easy to continue being progressive if you've always been raised that way. It's much harder to realize how wrong you once were, especially given the privileged position she's now in. She has the wealth to say "fuck it, I got mine," so it's pretty cool that she realizes how toxic those beliefs are.
Eh? She changed her mind and he didn't so don't blame her for choosing the lesser of two evils.
And this is coming from a leftist.
I live in Georgia, most people here are Republicans. I wish they weren't, as a gay man I have everything to lose, especially with the new SC we have now. But most of them aren't bad people, I don't agree with them but I also don't get emotionally invested in other people's politics, it's a rabbit hole.
Her family is from kentucky, no not too surprising given how some families can be. The important thing nowadays is that she chose to switch sides.
I was just making a tongue-in-cheek softball shot at Pratt. Not judging J Law here.
Not uncommon at all. We all grow and change. The first time I was able to vote was in 2004 and I voted for Bush.
As those years went on, I realized how wrong I was to do that. Educated myself on the issues. Voted Democrat ever since 2008.
This is true socially too. Sometimes (though not often) I see Facebook memories pop up from 2010 or so and I may have called something "retarded" or made an offensive "joke" as an attempt to be eDgY aS fUcK. It's like looking at a different person.

I have I vote for John Mccain also but changed my mind in 2012 a vote for Obama. My parents say I will turn conservative when I get older. I told them there is no way in hell that is going to happen.
When i was a kid here in brazil, i was raised to hate on lula and the worker's party for years and years. My mother never told me why, its just how you grow on my city. It was only after high school and first year of university that i realized what was going on. Can't judge people from being brainwashed, if you learn what happens and then switch sides you're doing the best you can.
I truly do not understand why you are always so damn toxic.
She's a human being honest about her past, admitting she was wrong and has clearly grown from that.
And your response is to attack her and make childish comments about her career.
Don't worry, Samara Weaving is coming in to eat up Margot Robbie's career.
The more the better, she grew up in fucking kentucky of all places so there even changing for the better coming from such a putrid state is something, even more so since she is rich AF. She could have easily slipped back to being a trumpist or republicans, as we see so,so,so often on threads here. Good on her
I just had a funny mental image of her hitting Republicans with the last-minute Mystique shape-shift.
I mean same. Parents and extended family are Republicans. Took me until my early 20's to realize that it was wrong.
