These conversion & deconversion stories always go the same way:
"I’m an impressionable fuckwit who immediately gets on the first ride that looks appealing. But soon I realized I wanted to get off Mr. Bones Wild Ride, because it looked much cooler than it actually was. Whew what a relief when I got off. Let me tell you about my current ride, which is much better, the most important ride of the world and you should definitely get on it too. Everyone who doesn’t get on THIS ride (which is definitely the correct one to be on) is evil and dooming humanity!
I would suggest that there’s a giant ocean of possible behaviors between bandwagoning distinctly incompatible idoelogies, one after another, and apathy.

I’m a reformed person."
Also perfectly fits religion.
This sounds like an example right out of “Mastering the subtle art of not giving a f*ck”
