Why don't you tell us yours in the OP? Why do people who post these types of post never do that?
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Don't know why that worries ya.
1 Putin_loves_cats 2018-05-06
I just don't understand why not, if your intention is to get a meaningful conversation going. Seems a bit curious, imo.
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Didn't you get booted from this site yet?
1 Putin_loves_cats 2018-05-06
Apparently not, being that I'm here talking to you right now. Why are you dodging?
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
You have a unique way of barging in and ruining all the fun, that's all. :(
1 Putin_loves_cats 2018-05-06
All I did was ask you a simple question: "Why not tell us yours first?".
1 Hagriss 2018-05-06
How is he ruining all the fun? He’s making completely valid points.
1 ichoosejif 2018-05-06

9/11
1 bittermanscolon 2018-05-06
9/11 was mine.
I actually stood in front of my TV in early 2002 and wewring my camo and armed with my M1 Garand, stood there and said that I wouldnlike to exact revenge on people in A-stan, as if they were the culprits. Since then the blame has been passed onto many different groups for propaganda purposes so you get the idea. I was manipulated. I was the sucker.
I don't remember what spurred on my want to confirm details but the pentagon and its related topics kept me hooked. Eventually leading me to wtc7 and then things grew from there.
Never looked back and never felt more confident in my humanity that I was standing for the right thing. I knew that even if I was in power this was not I would choose to advance my agenda. Even if I could be in such a place, the more time went by the more I knew I wouldn't have an agenda in the first place.
I knew this process was thr most anti human idea I had ever conceived and that set me on the right course. Never again would I be swayed in such a way.
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Yep. I think 9/11 did it for a lot of folks.
Mine was a combination of personal things as well as the (Obama-era) Iran Deal.

When I watched What The Health and realized that a true healthy lifestyle would kill the profits of the big food and pharmaceutical industries. They thrive on our illnesses
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Hm. Never seen that one. Sounds interesting. Will have to look up!

Reading the Talmud.
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Wow. Yea, that would do it!
I have never heard somebody who has actually read it. But having read excerpts, I can see how it could have a redpilling effect, definitely.
1 CelineHagbard 2018-05-06
I doubt that.

Mining thread
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Yep. I'm mining for friendly conversation and interest in what causes people to have paradigm shifts.
Also...because this hashtag could be a great way (on twitter, for example) to start a larger conversation which causes people to question their assumptions.
Terrible, I know.

Eva Bartlett’s UN Peace Commitee press conference.
1 Lyra_Fairview 2018-05-06
What was your redpill moment OP? I saw you mention something about the Iran deal. Also for self posts you don't need a submission statement FYI
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Oh. Thanks for letting me know.
As mentioned, mine was watching the Iran Deal unfold. At first, I couldn't figure out why we would be funnelling money to a country who motto seemed to be 'death to America'? It was baffling. That set me searching over what was really going on in the muslim world, what was really going on with these Middle East 'deals'. And that the Iranians weren't the bad guys in this, as they had been made out to be, after all.

When I was a kid I felt like I had a little of the red pill...I feel like I am just working up my dosage of it. The rabbit holes I am digging into just get deeper and deeper and leave me with more questions. I feel like I am in a labyrinth.
1 good_vibes_maad_city 2018-05-06
I read two things back to back
David McGowans Pedophocracy

and then the greenbaum speech

thanks for asking
1 doglover331 2018-05-06
Thank you for these links, it’s the 1st time I’ve ever heard about this & I’m blown away.
1 good_vibes_maad_city 2018-05-06
I'm glad someone found my comment in a buried thread :) I felt the same way when I first read the links.
I wrote a book where this is a major part of the thesis, if youre interested in checking it out:

My story may seem silly to some, but being born in the early 90's, I was simply too young to question 911 when it happened. Instead i grew up a good kid, I did everything I was told, and let right/wrong be programmed into me. Growing up the biggest negative influence is drugs, and they teach you from a young age that theyre bad. Considering my parents drank and smoked cigarettes it was hard for me to understand how terrible those substances were, if the government allowed them to be sold. Then I went to my first outdoors concert at 15. Marijuana. It was everywhere, and I'd never imagined people would use an illegal substance so openly, so freely together. One more year and I gave it a try. I was heartbroken that something so beautiful, so harmless and incredibly helpful was surrounded by a massive lie yet tobacco and alchohol are abused freely, my soul ached. That was when I knew I could no longer trust the words of others, and that in order to find the truth I'd have to make my own observations.

Also a fantastic answer! I would like to say “ditto” to the fear of it that was instilled in me by JUST SAY NO and DARE. What absolute, bullshit fear-mongering programs / concepts those were, being placed in elementary schools!
1 ZafeX 2018-05-06
I feel like the big Marijuana farce is the primary redpill for my generation.
1 mracidglee 2018-05-06
The book "Acid Dreams".
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
What's the premise of that one?
1 mracidglee 2018-05-06
It doesn't really traffic in theories. It is a cultural history of LSD, including the CIA's attempts to use it for mind control.
1 Space__Stuff 2018-05-06
My whole life I had the feeling things were not as they seem, but my official red pill moment was the first time I listened to Bill Cooper.
1 japroct 2018-05-06
The day an unheard of black politician with 6 months of experience was "elected" president. Right then I was bitch slapped into reality of what has happened to democray in America.
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Yea, in retrospect, that was weird, huh?
1 japroct 2018-05-06
Only the beginning. During the campaign, BOOM!!!! All of his past records were sealed. I mean ALL OF THEM. You could not search his past to get any idea of his qualifications, and his alias was "Barry" until waaaaaaaay later. Smell fishy? It smelled like a goddamn fish market in 100° heat.
1 -Nurse-Ratched 2018-05-06
Cutout.
1 achepea 2018-05-06
This too. I also agree with this one.

9/11 here.
Then, shortly there after, seeing US policy at work up-close and first-hand.
1 Apryggen 2018-05-06
Mine was watching the witch hunt of Trump unfold, trying to delegitimize an elected president in our biggest democracy on Earth. That's beyond creepy.
1 marywasalizard 2018-05-06
I believed 9/11 was a real attacked and I carried on believing for years and years up until about 2015. I never fully believed the story I was told though because these things didn't make sense to me :
1) Why do I have to give money to the worlds largest economy after a disaster? This landed me in detention.
2) Why was Osama bin laden making films in a cave? How did they not know where he was? How did he make tapes and deliver them to America or wherever (Think about the tech needed)
3) If he was so poor to live in a cave, how did he fund this attack? (The answer was always: enemies of America funded him. Who were these rich enemies and why weren't we attacking them?)
4) Why did the towers fall down like Fred Dibnah had done it from beyond the grave?
5) (This thought was the final straw and I closed my mind off to 9/11 after this) When I was in Afghanistan I saw nothing but sand and camels. Yet some of the most advanced technology (Some of which used to mis-identified as UFO's in the late 90's) was deployed to blast the shit out of mountains and some pissed off nationalists. Why? Why was NASA there?
Unfortunately, learning about 9/11 ruined my love of UFO's as I found out that nearly all UFO sightings are advanced military tech. I know this from peaking behind the green curtain...naughty me.
You could say 9/11 was the itch that I could never scratch, not until I saw Zeitgeist, then holy shit did my world blow open.
My original red pill was the pyramids of mars discovery back in the 90's. Followed by mass coverage of the obviously bullshit 'face of mars'. I knew the face was a shadow on a rock, but the media would not stop going on about something so obviously bullshit but only mention the pyramids of mars once or twice. I tried looking for information on this a few years later but found nothing. It was like the internet was scrubbed of data from the pyramids of mars, back in the early 00's!
I hope you enjoyed this long, rambly message, OP.
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
I did. Lots of good rabbit trails to follow!
1 MarysDaughter 2018-05-06
I love what you're saying although I'm not familiar with the pyramids on Mars, but are we speaking about the same Mary in our user names? Because Mary, the mother of Jesus, is our greatest advocate imho.
1 marywasalizard 2018-05-06
I am talking about the not-so-virgin Mary. Who happened to be a lizard and gave birth to the first lizard/human hybrid.

Try "What was your #redpillmoment"
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
I like it!
1 MarysDaughter 2018-05-06
I was praying. It went something like this, "God, I'm not happy about my choices for president...again. And I want to vote according to Your Will and I think I know how You feel about these candidates based on what I know about Your teachings but I've never actually asked You personally. So, what do YOU think of these candidates?"
I think I expected confirmation of what I already knew but He showed me almost immediately (I think it was later that same day) something which made me think He was showing me that HRC actually worships Satan. I was in disbelief. I never imagined it was that bad. I actually would have thought it was a temptation to think so. Then Wikileaks broke and those suspicions appear to be substantiated.
Now I just keep on asking Him things and if it's good for me know, He answers me. I hope my prayers are helping. They must be helping in some way, shape or form because I'm sure God doesn't waste any prayers:)
God bless!
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
Wow!
Thanks for sharing this! I too reached the same conclusion, but it was not confirmed in prayer, as your information was. That is cool that God showed you in prayer first and then confirmed in evidence later.
A word to keep trusting and praying.
1 MarysDaughter 2018-05-06
Thank you! Just to clarify what you are saying, are you saying that you do NOT feel God has confirmed your beliefs in prayer? Or perhaps you are saying you hadn't brought them to prayer? I'm not sure. Sorry.
It was neat to read your story as well as others. Thanks for the awesome question!
It's nice to see someone on more than one subreddit, too. I'd not experienced that. Neat:)
1 StGabriel5 2018-05-06
No. I'm saying God *has* confirmed my beliefs in prayer at various times. Specifically with the president, I found evidence which alarmed me about HRC and evidence which moved me to vote for Trump.
It sounds like you were moved by the Holy Spirit in prayer about these things first, and only later came to the evidence. Hope this makes sense. Yes, it is nice to see folks on more than one subreddit! God bless.
