    Joke’s on me; I totally locked in on that shit and even made some pro-propaganda student films!

    Few things teach you humility like a friend finally breaking through to you and shattering your glass bubble of misinformation. Especially when your personality and morals are completely at odds with your foundational beliefs that were built up by authority figures. I was that kid who would hang out with unhoused people and try to help them with shit because everybody deserves a friend, but I wouldn’t give them money because I was taught that poor people don’t know how to manage their money or spend it all on drugs.
