I am an independent. Mine was the BLM riots, anti-white hate campaign, and discovery of Critical Race Theory. It happened pretty much all at once for me.
Ron Paul libertarian here. Voted Libertarian in 2004, and wrote in Ron Paul in 2008 and 2012. Was gonna vote Rand Paul 2016, and HATED Trump (still not sure why) until he tried to do a rally in Chicago in early 2016 and he had to cancel because of the woke Marxist mobs committing violence and hate against Trump supporters.
Even worse, when I posted on Facebook that I was outraged that in America that somebody even as “crazy as Trump” couldn’t give a rally without being attacked, some people that I thought were my friends for years immediately unfriended me for daring think that Trump wasn’t Hitler.
I decided at that moment that there was nothing more important than defending Trump’s right to speak against the cancel culture homos, and the rest is history. Been a die hard ever since.
TLDR: cancel culture turned an “Independent” into a Trump Republican.
