This is a genuine question, as every time I have an argument about this with someone they bring a point so utterly stupid that it leaves me stumped...

Yeah it's incredibly difficult, that's why the majority of people never change their ideology past their early 20s when they first flirt with several. Add in the fact that you'll likely be socially ostracized from your old community if you ever do change your mind and the evolutionary pressure to be accepted over being logical, and it's quite frankly impressive anyone ever does.

Thing I don't get is where people are finding this sense of community. I understand that it's rough to feel like you belong in America, but are red pill Internet communities really enough for some people to give them a sense of belonging? Every Internet "community" I've ever been a part of just feels like a bunch of strangers arguing about things and trying to pile into some ranking order.
