Classic Conservative. All feelings of empathy begin and end at himself.

Yeah this is not uplifting, this is just every conservative. "Oh shit, this is harming me now, we must stop it immediately."

Yeah but it sounds like he actually is growing out of the mindset.

Conservatism is simply a lack of experience. We all grew out of some shitty views, just some had their wake up call earlier and others were more isolated from experience and took more time.

Let’s be glad this dude came around at all, or his daughter might just have been another statistic at this point. He could have been another grifting chud on TikTok screeching about the librul media taking his child away through brainwashing, but he chose humanity.

Let’s stop shitting on people who were wrong when they finally come to their senses.

And, yes, you are right: people who used to be wrong aren't wrong anymore. We're all just really used to brow-beating our perceived enemies.
