This is for midwest socialists in columbus right? Trying to figure out some answers. What should a socialist/feminist/antiracist/antifa/etc do who has deeply disgraced themselves? (midwest.social)

Say someone has completely violated every value they have. Been kicked out of local socialist parties, etc. What should that person do with their life? Do anarchists/socialists/etc believe in redemption for anyone? When does forgiveness go too far? What should that person do afterward?

If it’s something you still believe in strongly enough, you can start your own social anarchist parties, but with blackjack and hookers. Or just find other people to hang out with that share different interests and maybe start introducing them to social anarchist values.

If your life is that defined by political ideologies and you have to have that group in your life, you can try to make peace with them, but it’s hard to say with only vague reasons given. If you make enough effort at redemption, I like to think people can get over most things, but then again, some people may forgive but never forget.
