The most ardent critics of a faith, or a political ideology, were usually at one time believers.

And the most ardent supporters of the same were at one time not believers in that faith or political ideology.

They either had a conversion event such as Paul on the road to Damascus. Or they had a crisis of faith such as Darwin's upon his return from his voyage on the Beagle.

We grew up in a faith, indoctrinated from birth, baptized, and told to do our duty on behalf of that faith.

But at some point we started seeing through the bullshit that we were spoon-fed and to see the reality of the situation.

Some of us were forever alones, some high up on the Autism Spectrum, some were Chads and Alphas and decent men. Most of us have one thing in common, the lie that we were spoon-fed.

Whenever such revelations happen, the previous ideology cannot stand. The Enlightenment of Europe swept much of the old regimes away. Christianity destroyed paganism of the Hellenic World.

The Ancient Regime cannot stand, it is as corrupt as those sitting in history's garbage can. The King Louis' and Marie Antoinette's of this era have a date with this era's guillotines.

We have already won.
