I think that the only deeply held belief for my family is that our country will never amount to anything if we stopped depending on the US so all the leftists are lunatics. Every other thing is not really important in political discourse in my country, so even though people become fascists all the time (particularly christofascists) you usually can talk them down from it pretty quickly as long as you stay away from the colonialism issue. They'll straight up say being gay should be illegal one minute, and 2 baby's first secularism sentences later they'll be like "yeah I can see why it would make sense for HRT to be free." It's funny what happens when propaganda about most other things isn't that strong.
Anyway, people don't bother hiding it, either.
