One joke I’ve heard before, and I guess it’s pretty common, and not exactly correct, but not exactly wrong either, is that everyone gets to go to the same place, where you get reunited with all of your relatives.
For the virtuous, this is heaven.

Libs do.
It’s like an “I told you so” to them, to get to own people from the past, letting people know that justice was ahead of their time, or whatever.
They didn’t get their way, sure, but some decades down the line, when the arc of history eventually curves their way, people are gonna find the dissent, and that justice would have, like, totally accomplished something simply by calling it decades before society agreed.
They fucking jerk off to dissents.

Similar. Grew up in a right wing household. Went libertarian because it was the closest ideology I knew of to what I believed. Quickly learned how awful libertarians were and how the invisible hand doesn’t actually exist. Self identified as “apolitical” but was actually somewhere on the bottom left of the political compass for a while, with Orwell and Chomsky to thank for that. Then found Marx.
