If you could, how would you deprogram an extreme liberal? (links.hackliberty.org)

How would you approach persuading a far extreme liberal toward center? What would you set as a realistic goal for a productive discourse? Would it be better attempt to do so in person rather than online?

Great, but that’s not what republicans mean when they say “extremist liberal.” Instead they have coopted the term “extremist” so it no longer means anything, except what they want it to, when they want it to.

That’s what extremists do, gaslight, obstruct and project. It’s all 101 level stuff.

I'm not disagreeing with you, I just really hate when people who know extreme left just from the internet claim how awesome it is. It's not, there's really few differences between extreme left and extreme right.
