I’m just glad I decided to go full moral relativism right away back then. It was a good way to speedrun maturity, although I did maintain some kooky beliefs into early adulthood such as
“if you are not multilingual you can’t be a good person, and the more languages you speak the better of a person you are”
“The Democratic party is a puppet of the Republican party, and in reality the U.S. is only pretending to be a two-party state”
“The age of consent should be 25.”
“Evil people can be good functioning members of society, so we shouldn’t discriminate against people who hold evil beliefs as long as they are nice to others.”
It was exhausting. Opposite reason from you, there was only middle ground, no black and white allowed. But it came from the same mental place. Pride, arrogance, nieveté.

Glad we grew out of it.
