Women are retarded regardless of political affiliation
I'm a white woman in my early 20s. A few years ago, I was canceled for alleged 'transphobic' or racist views. I didn't apologize and became a semi-known anti-liberal activist online. Although I was frustrated with other women's liberalism, I managed to convert at least a dozen other women and cause them to reject it.
The problems started when I noticed how quickly these women changed their views. They would echo my statements word for word in conversations with others. For example, one woman was initially a calm liberal, and a year later she's sharing memes with the word nigger in them. She made a dedicated anti-liberal account, and it's just parroting my views or the views of my male conservative buddies.
Noticing this behavior makes me feel guilty and creeped out. I feel almost like I've accidentally groomed them, even though they're adults. It has made it hard to form genuine friendships with other women, because I know they're not developing their own opinions. Regardless of their political stance, blue or red, they value social validation over any individual friend or belief.
While I'm glad I've influenced some women, I'm upset after realizing this. Now I regularly question whether I exhibit the same herd-like thoughtlessness myself.
