"LibRehab" is a place to point people to when they showcase clear signs of Liberalism (not in a mean way). It is also a place to proactively destroy your liberalism before it becomes counterrevolutionary.

Posts here should be a mix of simplified theory, countering of historical revisionism / anti-communist talking points, and a nonjudgmental space for those on the journey of deprogramming their mind.

While none of us were precisely born as liberals, the vast majority of us were raised as such.

If you could reach back in time to the past version of you that remained under the illusions of liberalism, what would you say?

Nothing political. I became a leftist aged 14 because of the Great recession hitting my family hard. Material conditions are the easiest way to get radicalized.

I suppose I could tell young Gos about asexuality. That'd spare me some pointless stuff a few years ago. And to not get hooked on sugar, but I doubt I'd listen.

However, I am a believer that the steps made that led me to become the person I am today shouldn't really be changed if magically given the chance to. Despite my bad mental health, I'm not actually unhappy with how I am as a person. Beyond my physical health that is.
