re: How many life-long Dems on this site are appalled that their party is becoming Marxist?

I've been skeptical of these anecdotal stories of people getting red pilled. However, I now can add my own anecdote. A "friend" that I have known for decades is a retired school teacher. She was a "Karen" before we knew what a Karen was. She taught at magnet schools her entire career and has always been a big advocate for the "disenfranchised" and those with alternate life styles, etc. She is still a big JBE backer but because she thought Hillary was part of the corrupt ruling class, she voted 3rd party in 2016. Now that she is retired she has been able to watch all the hearings and Kavanaugh was a turning point for her to question the DEMS. Now with the looting and burning and the DEMS refusing to condemn it..she said this is what the entire country will be like. So, I said which 3rd party candidate are you going to vote for...she said; "Oh, no I'm voting for Trump as much as he disgusts me." Now I actually know someone who has awakened.
