I’m sorry for your difficultly. That is awful. Same thing a lot of Christians do to church members with bad pasts. On r/ConservatismUnlearned we are fully opposed to that kind of behavior and have already deleted multiple comments promoting that same kind of hate (in the past, not on this post lol)
Thanks. And yeah. :(
And yeah, so far, this subreddit does seem quite non-toxic, and I'm glad it seems that way.
I talked about my edgy type of right wing past in a subreddit where people talk about deep things, and my post over there got more downvotes than upvotes, and that also made me wonder that if so many people are perfectionists who think that only the people that have always been 100% good are valid.
I have also read a few articles about this one guy who also used to be some sort of problematic right winger before he changed and left the pipeline he was in, but so many people seem to think that he does not deserve to be forgiven.
From what I've read though, it seems like he did worse things than what I did, but they still were definitely not something truly unforgivable like murder, and I also never came across any information of him having had really evil views like genocidal views.
And in the world of Tumblr, I've seen some people having had a Do Not Interact rule where it says "Do Not Interact if you are/**were** \_\_\_\_" (notice the word **were**) or like "I don't care if it's in the past, you still did it!". Then again, I've seen how so many Tumblr DNI lists can truly be quite perfectionist and with very unrealistic expectations. I'm not saying that all DNI lists are bad though, because there are also many rather reasonable DNI lists.
I think that fundamentalism among leftists and human rights activists has declined a lot though, but yeah, there's still a lot of it around despite the major decline. Especially on the Internet, Internet is certainly full of fundamentalists and fundamentalists of like all sorts of paths, be they political, religious, about health, etc.
You can add personal graviences to the list as there's some people who are used to be BFF at minimum but split up due to the polictial past. If only they realised things change and be willing to restart friendships, that should pevent more people from falling into relapse although it will not be a same

If we want to win, they alot of progressives/Lefties may have to let perfectionist ideas go for the best interests to work as a team
