Up until the age of I dunno 15 or so I never got into politics - my parents never brought it up, and I had the fortune to avoid most of it on the internet. However, if I had to pin down an exact political leaning, I would probably say I was sort of right-leaning around the time due to being an edgy teenager.
Then Modi's election run began (while we were outside the country) and my dad started talking about how he was the slimiest character there was in Indian politics at the time, and while I didn't really get involved in politics at the time, it was starting to become clear that Modi's right wing politics wasn't something good. As we returned to India later (after he got elected), the shift ---from the India I knew and grew up with, and the India that would follow--- was pretty evident (sounds familiar? this was a full 2 years before Trump) and it was around this time that I would probably have identified as left-leaning (respective to the country anyways)
Gamergate happened and for a brief period of time I was beginning to get radicalized to the (alt-)right. I don't know what happened around that period but I'm glad I never fully got dragged down that rabbit hole - all things told, the worst that happened was me getting permabanned from a subreddit which was given the impression of being "headed by SJWs". Compared to others, I got pretty lucky in that regard. Hopefully I'm wiser to the ways in which people can get radicalized now, because I don't know if something similar will happen in the future - given the stories of left-leaning or centrists swinging to the right practically overnight, I don't know. It's comforting to believe that you'd be immune, but complacency can cost you everything.
Lastly, trump got elected in 2016, and while my views were already left-leaning at this point, his subsequent actions from 2017 onwards would only cement it since I'd already seen the same song and dance with Modi the first time around.
