Do you have any family members with really weird politics?

There's one uncle who's politics is an uncomfortable spot.

For a while he's been sliding further and further right. When he was younger he was a communist and then, like, he became a liberal (I don't see him in the flesh much, or maintain a presence on the sites he uses anymore, but gossip is he's gone full tory now). Last time I had a big arguement with him was online almost a decade ago when he said that communist revolutionaries've only made countries they've liberated worse. Now I'm an anarchist and thus critical of many of the big socialist projects, but claiming they were worse than they were before the revolution is complete bullshit. So I asked him "do you think Russia was better under the Tsar?" and he was like, "yes." So I asked him how he felt about the pogroms tsarists carried out on the reg, and he just started doing the whole "whataboutism" shtick. And harped on at me about the huge death toll of communism and when I tried to tell him about how fudged those numbers are, he called me a genocide denier.

Now, I get a lot of you in thread have folks down the Q-hole or whatever. But being a bloke that grew up as Thatcher bollocksed the community he grew up in, from a family of commited communists. We're all scratching our heads over how he went that way.
