Has anyone ever woken up and decided to drop their klan robes and become a Marxist? Or quit the SS and a year later joining worker picket lines?

Id imagine alot of people who are communists in the west started as reactionaries. Probably not as extreme of examples as you are asking for
There was a dude I remember liking his message, he was a skinhead I believe that reformed his life. idk if he ever became a comrade or just a lib but I jived with a lot of what he said. But his name escapes me rn.
I never expressed sentiment irl or joined a hate group, but there was a time in my life, 12 years ago that I was into 4chan and antisemitism. Loooooong story short but life events including addiction and mental health problems got me to drop the act thinking I was some kind of ubermensch white man and actually listen to people who are different to me and find solidarity with them.
So I can see right through it when some moron starts claiming that being anti-zionist is antisemtism, motherfucker I was an antisemite, I know what it looks like.
Malcolm X had a pretty wild journey and while he never fully shed some reactionary and huckster aspects of his past, he became progressively communist.
I think we should specify here that I’m guessing OP is referring to this change happening in adults. I liked the colbert report unironically as a 12 year old shit head but then my brain developed and I learned about empathy and inequality.
That being said I have no examples but I imagine if you could somehow get a fascist to drop their eugenics mindset (challenge: EXTREME) I don’t think it would be too hard to get them to come around. We might have to make up a new word for communism though
there might be some “socialism but only for white people” bullet receptacles who get the lee atwater brain tumor and drop the white supremacist part but i wouldn’t put much effort into finding them and i would never trust one.
I should read the book by Edward Behr The Last Emperor because it details not just the Qing emperor reforming but also some of the fiercest KMT and imperial Japanese officers were somehow rehabilitated, and I’m curious about who these people were
RFK Jr is a poster here
surely it has happened but it probably is extremely rare
Seeing how far the overton window’s been pushed in the west I don’t think it’s too uncommon for leftists to have started off as reactionary libs (or chuds) then got pushed left with time or education, idk?
but to be kkklan members and go marxist? dunno
Stranger things have happened I guess.
I was in the Marines, by all measures I was a christian fascist and a bigot against queer people. Wasn’t knowingly overly racist, just like lib racist… Now I have tits and sometimes teach people Marxism.
One the host of the colonial outcasts, (Mark Wayne I think) was looking to join the idf before he learned the truth. Now he’s a member of the black panthers.
I take off my robes and wizard hat
