How were you redpilled?
2 2017-11-27 by ThatSluttyPumpkin
Personally, this was around September of 2016, I was on a r/The_Donald post and there was a string of comments mentioning how r/pizzagate was banned and how they moved to voat. I decided to check it out because the comments were mentioning how they banned it since they were getting too close to the truth (keep in mind i had no idea what pizzagate was about at the time). So I went on voat and after looking at some posts, the red pill was officially swallowed.

When you realize the Red pill is the blue pill and you played yourself.

Purple pill.
1 IndigoMD 2017-11-27
You should do some research into the red pill / blue pill thing. Stop thinking about the matrix and some pseudo logic attributed to "red pill/woke"

can you briefly explain it to me?

Not him but let me try:
Red pill / blue pill is an over simplification. It's a heuristic, a mental shortcut. While there is truth to it there is also deception. The idea has been hijacked by the very ones you're woke to.

This is why I started to believe in crypto currency. I think it's a potential tool to combat this. If you look at what's going on in crypto right now you can see an obvious attack, they're scared.

Yes I don’t think there is pills.. lol I believe people just look at the situation and end up eating whichever pile of poop is out in front of them.

Native Son and Slaughterhouse-Five opened my eyes and then a few years of /pol/ later I'm really redpilled now.
1 aeisoju 2017-11-27
Seems as though there many red pills. Feels like 35% of the redpills are white superiority / jew and black hate and trans hate and woman hate according to 4 Chan.
Lot of good but there are many shit pills disguised as red mixed in there.
1 aleister 2017-11-27
There comes a point where you need to ask yourself why there's a disproportionate number of jews telling you what you think, but that doesn't mean that you need to hate or gas anyone.

I learned about the New World Order and saw a video compilation of past presidents and politicians, social leaders and wealthy elites using that exact term in speeches, in the same context.
Here's a small sample of it.

Baltimore - Ferguson chimpouts
1 ThatSluttyPumpkin 2017-11-27
sorry if im out of the loop, but can you explain the chimpout part?
1 aleister 2017-11-27
I think that would reference a disproportionate social response orchestrated in an attempt to gain political leverage by exploiting tragedies of black men justly or unjustly killed by policemen under the impression they were doing their jobs.
1 Squirrelboy85 2017-11-27
The people of st.louis picked up on that pretty quick

I lived about 15 miles from Ferguson when it went down. Id like to hear your thoughts on this.

1 BigTgs 2017-11-27
That it was a disaster for a town riddled with issues already. That msm played people like a fiddle? People stopped thinking for themselves. A town was destroyed. Poor children went without food for a week because School was closed for the disruption and destruction going on. Innocent business owners lost their livelihood because of punks bussed in to “protest”. Corruption ran thick within and without of the whole situation.
1 blackbutters 2017-11-27
What do they eat on the weekends?
1 BigTgs 2017-11-27
The schools have a program that every Friday they send home a sack of canned goods and non perishable foods. Quite sad honestly.
1 blackbutters 2017-11-27
I guess they just have to hunt and fish in the summer.
1 BigTgs 2017-11-27
Oh yes children with money for rifles and shotguns and fishing gear yet no money for food. So logical. It doesn’t take much to be a decent human or think actively about the demographic nature of that area. And because of how the adults behave in that region the children are automatically put into the same category. It’s a damn shame.

I remember my mom in the early 90s telling me how horrible the Clintons were. It wasn't until Hillary tried to run for President that I came to understand. She was a wise woman and I wish she was around to see me now.

The campaign was weird. He was overconfident. I'm roughly 22 years old and could see there just was something off with the way the entire system was going.
I was sure of it, it didn't seem organic.
When he won I was like "Wtf, something wrong here"
1 aleister 2017-11-27
Yes, yes it does. I would buy you a drink if I could. As I've become accustomed to saying, "it sure does grow you up real fast".

At my age most of the people around me have their parents. They don’t fully understand. Even my mother in law still has her mom and I’m mid 40s
For all that I put my parents through I’m fortunate that they didn’t see me die (nor their other kids).
When you get a chance to have that drink with someone consider me telling a joke next to you and saying cheers.

Voted Obama in 2012. Worked with his administration on Fed funding at state levels and with ACA. Total crock of shit dirt bag politics. Couldn't believe this was the guy who I voted for. Gave him several chances but each time I was let down. He was a total puppet and his 2nd 3rd layers of leadership were total frauds. Media would never ask the tough questions. Realized it was all a big orchestrated mob taking advantage of the people.

1 PiggyDota 2017-11-27
9/11 did it for me.
Too many things do not add up and I talk to many people about it.
Things like reptiles, flat earth and jew hating are completely ridiculous. Holocaust denial is a monstrosity and it makes me sad when people believe it to be bullshit. A lady I know went to auswitz and her story of what she saw brought her to tears, then myself. Whole rooms of hair and spectacles is horrifying.
I generally feel that Americans question this more than Europeans, Sadly guys, we are literally closer to the history than you are.
1 ThatSluttyPumpkin 2017-11-27
personally i believe flat earth and reptiles but i know that is very unpopular here
1 PiggyDota 2017-11-27
Can you show me proof of either?
Undeniable proof?!
1 ThatSluttyPumpkin 2017-11-27
they were both ones i never wanted to believe, but after enough investigation, it became apparent to me the truth of them. for the reptilians one i would say the celebrities eyes changing is pretty damning, as well as looking into the research david icke has done. for flat earth, one video that got me was zooming in on the toronto skyline from 30 miles away and seeing the base of every building, where curvature wouldnt let you see that.

Awesome! Just trying to help squeeze the truth out of things. Glad that you're open to it. Most people who are into Flat Earth who I share that with just call me and shill and ignore it, believe it or not.
1 aleister 2017-11-27
I have full memory of 9/11 including watching the smoke rising from the Pentagon from my office. I was working on the Pentagon Renovation (PENREN) program and installing networking gear into wedge 2, which is where the 'plane' hit. The wing was mostly empty of people but included a Navy intelligence wing and some critical data if I remember correctly.
I have full recollection of telling my wife that none of this made sense, Iraq literally didn't attack us. I was a rabid liberal anti-Bush sort of guy, and continue to at least be anti-Bush, but it's weird in hindsight to literally see the problem but lack the mental capacity to see the conspiracy.

once you are aware of the redpill its too late.
1 aleister 2017-11-27
What is the redpill though? It's like asking "what is time"? Well, it's complicated and somewhat subjective.
I'll offer one theory. People that consider themselves "redpilled" are basing their moral high-ground on survival. They try to rationally consider what it is they are seeing and it's especially notable since it's in direct conflict with what they are being told.
You can see how this can cover a lot of different "redpilled" folks, from the gangbanger in the ghetto that knows firsthand how the game works to the born and raised Minnesotan who is now trying to navigate the Muslim majority and foreign values being forced upon them.
It also involves a number of people on the internet with too much free fucking time on their hands, but then you have the alternative.
Those that base their moral high-ground on virtue. They spend their time trying to put everyone else into different categories based upon race, religion, gender, political beliefs, sexuality, feelings or mental illness so that they can label people as bigots that don't agree with them and exile them from employment and ultimately, living, because they disagree.

10 year anniversary of 9/11. Starting watching news coverage of the event on YouTube as a way to pay my respects I suppose and it didn't take longer before I found myself asking questions. Building 7 was the big one for me. There was no way in hell I was buying the office fire bullshit. Turned my world upside down.
1 cali4ever 2017-11-27
The biggest issues I have with 9/11 are as follows
1) Flying a plane into a building is VERY hard at those speeds
2) The 'plane' that hit the pentagon was coming in at an unfathomable low altitude and surprisingly horizontal
3) Buildings ONLY fall perfectly down when demolished. I highly doubt that the buildings would have both collapsed the way they did just from the plane impacts. Would they have collapsed or fallen over partially? Surely, but a complete and perfect collapse? Doubtful...
4) The "P.A.T.R.I.O.T" act
5) The war in Iraq

In 10th grade I looked into 9/11 after visiting the 9/11 memorial, museum, and freedom tower. Then I researched sandy hook. I realized the news is entirely fake. Through personal experience I learned the media and feminism in particular brainwash the youth into throwing away their lives about a year or two later. Being banned from feminist groups for asking questions and geting trolled by already red pilled people was the tipping point.
1 doooooooomed 2017-11-27
I would argue the news isn't entirely fake. They throw in enough truth to string people asking.
The best lies are mixed with truth, like medicine for kids is mixed with candy. Makes it easier to swallow.

It was dad...somewhere back in the nineties. I remember him talking about JFK and how the official story was a cover up. His theory back then was that he was killed by the CIA for trying to abolish the Federal Reserve.
I actually can't get him to have a meaningful conversation on anything conspiracy anymore, but in his defense, he's 77 and the forgetfulness has begun to creep in.

After 9/11. When my boyfriend at the time came back from war he told me some things that confirmed what I was already pondering, and was too scared to talk about others. Let's just say I've known we've been spied on for a long time now.

Reading The Illuminatus! Trilogy by Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea, 20 years ago...
It was written in the 70s so already a 'classic' at the time.
Excellent fun and mind-boggling book, I have re-read it 3 times, 1100+ pages, time for another reading soon I think...

He basically just always had a TV and a map and would show us the news and call them out on lies and show us on the map about the war in Iraq it is hard to remember because of how young I was but I remember loving not having to do real school work but when I got older and became more involved in conspiracies truly started to appreciate him and his teaching method. He also made us do riddles everyday so I think that helped me learn to think outside the box. Such a great man. He truly is a hero.
