Even the ones that are of the 'I used to be a liberal but the overton window keeps shifting' eventually has a mask-off moment. Like clockwork.

You mean something that you disagree with. It's not the same as a "mask off" moment, which suggests deception on their part. It makes sense that people who used to be a liberal except for them getting more extreme would not agree with you on everything.

I'm not talking about Europe, and I don't care about them. They're big boys and can take care of themselves. I'm more focused on my own backyard, thanks.

I'm giving an example, not demanding that you care about Europe.
