You mean what your parents and school etc. indoctrinated you into before becoming an anarchist again?

My first self chosen ideology was anarchism. But I was raised social democrat / liberal and also indoctrinated to liberalism by the school system.

Also I still have to reflect on the marks that being raised in an authoritarian ( structurally white supremacist, colonialist, patriarchical, ableist, classist, cisheteronormative, gerontocratic, capitalist) society left on and in me.

i used to be a “centrist”

Apolitical

I did a full 180 from complete authoritarianism. I’d watch movies like The Giver and get annoyed that the protagonist was ruining the great thing the govt had going

Middle school I was a very progressive liberal. Early highschool I was Trotskyist, and then later high school till I turned 20 I was a Council Communist and Luxemburgist. Then I learned about the Spanish Civil War by playing HOI4 and read At the Cafe by Malatesta, and became an anarchist.

I’ve been an anarchist since I was a teenager. It was my first approach to politics, and I have considered myself one ever since.

Sometimes I have had doubts about my political position, but I think that is healthy behavior.

Confused.

I started drifting away from conservative values when I was very young. It was slow and constant and I never stopped drifting away. My current state of believes never made much sense to myself so there was no good reason to stop.

I found anarchism in my mid 20’s and that was the first time I found something that almost made sense. It would take another 10ish years of lived experiences and listening to other people’s stories to really understand my relationship with anarchism.

I never really read any anarchist books or dug deep into the philosophy. Listening to people and their traumas was way more than enough to help me understand the significance of anarchism.

communism, not sure which variant but you could ask some flowchart questions and i’ll try my best to answer based on my beliefs back then. one such belief was paternalism

Social Democrat, but I became disillusioned with voting.

I don’t know enough about it to say I am anarchist but I always been leftish but of course when I was a kid I did get some info that was actually evil and right leaning that I took as real. Also had hate of any authority which I still struggle with to a lesser degree (but a healthy distrust always a good thing). Why am posting if I don’t know? I guess i just been slowly acclimating to the idea.
