How much does your perception of someone change when you find out they're leftists?

How much does your perception of someone change when you find out they're leftists?

Not at all. I assume everyone's a leftist. I'm pleasantly surprised if they aren't. I can't imagine it's any different in modern Germany. Unless you accept the meme that parties like the Christian Democrats are "center right"

Nothing much, I just think they might have head in ass syndrome.

depends. some leftists i've met are genuinely friendly, decent people. others spill their spaghetti and start circle-jerking with fellow leftists at the drop of a hat like virtue signalling twats, and become personally hostile when challenged.

Depends on if they make rational decisions.

Just because they are liberal doesn't mean they hold far left views.

Pretty much this, especially in college

If women = confirmed as whores, who I should never considering dating

If men = confirmed weaklings, destructors of nation and family

...

Same here except I live in Massachusetts and have literally not once in my life been pleasantly surprised

If someone doesn't believe in the efficiency of self-interest, I simply propose that wealth redistribution should never violate self ownership. Most of them wouldn't dare to disagree with that in public. True leftists deny the very concept of self ownership, and that opinion is extremely unpopular even in socialist circles.

i assume they arent very smart and their world view comes from social media,television, and video games

I'm a leftist. Voted for socialdemocrats my whole life.

Germany deserves a nuclear holocaust just for this post.

>i assume they arent very smart and their world view comes from social media,television, and video games
The sad realization is that this doesn't just apply to dumb people. It's "normies." People who are satisfied with the status quo and never ever thought to question it. In a top law school and then the legal field, I'm surrounded by extremely smart people. But they're all Hillary-supporting democrats who watch Marvel movies and baseball -- only difference between them and the middle America masses is they'll throw on pastels to go to the Kentucky Derby rather than checker coats to go to the Indy 500 and they shop at Target and Whole Foods rather than Walmart. These are smart people, but they're 100% bought in.

I instantly no longer give a shit about anything that happens to them and make a point of doing anything I can to make their life harder.

100%. It sucks when. Someone is funny or knowledgeable about an interest (Thunderf00t) to find out their a blind mainstream follower.

If we didn't shake hands with leftists, Germany would be divided and pointless. We'll not become economic pushovers because of differing beliefs.

Not at all. I was pretty leftist myself until I was like 24.

I am assuming the conversation at that point has drifted to politics if I found out their political leanings.
Usually I just mentally prepare to debunk the same bullshit that's been circulated over and over again. Trump's a racist, Trump's a sexist, I'm a racist, yadda yadda.

There is no 'they' anymore, leftists are not humans,

Communism and postcommunism aside, I would be a socialist myself if we had any manufacturing left. But there are no plants left, there are no working people to represent, from social-democrats to Greens (most perfidious degenerates) all they want is to import 3rd world brown people (social divisions to make, victims to help, EU gibs to claim), LGBT rights and anticlericalism (despite it's the only thing that keeps us together).

We saw what happened to the West, someone who is a leftist wants only your destruction (because of stupidity or cynicism), wants to literally shit in his own nest. Healthy society, which we are not, should reject those people. Show them mercy, show them a little bit of weakness and you are done, you are fucking gone

I don't know man, I lived in MA in the foxboro/North Attleboro area and all my boys out there were pretty right wing apart from smoking a lot of weed.
