I know it's going to get everyone going, but The Fountainhead. I have since accepted how the ideology and utopian bullshit is just that. Total fantasy.
But I would be remiss if I didn't admit it encouraged me to take my life into my own hands, try my best not to have to rely on others, become resourceful and useful. That has all helped me quite a bit in the subsequent decades.
Not too long after my indoctrination, I decided hey if I'm so sure about this ideology, then no harm in reading the other stuff. So I read the Communist Manifesto and accepted, yeah, Engels & Marx made some good points about a lot of stuff.
For a long time I've been happily in the middle understanding both those extremes and their appeal to people.
