After taking up Vipsanna meditation, I became more and more interested in Buddhism. I read many books on the subject. By 2006 I was ready to declare myself a Buddhist. Come 2022 I became a lapsed Buddhist. I was increasingly aware how radically Western liberals had edited Buddhism–they added secular Protestant morality, worshiped antiracism, anti sexism, opposed authority, believed in the cults of the individual, etc. With the rise of Woke I gave all this self-righteous, self-interested and unselfaware nonsense.
