Started for me when I saw Reddit was removing any criticism of the Orlando Pulse night club shooter as well as any posts or comments with links to blood donations for the victims. Somehow the "evil homophobes" at The_Donald were the only ones talking about it and stickying posts for blood donations to the victims. That's when I saw leftists were the bad guys.

That was my ultimate red-pill. Not just Democrat/Republican, but that was the day my eyes were opened to the maliciousness of the media corporations whenever a story does not advance tHe NaRrAtIvE.

I was utterly disgusted with Reddit, Facebook, etc. censoring information while also claiming folks at the Donald were the racist ones. Will never associate with those patronizing fools ever again. Wish I had known about their façade sooner.

Mine was Trayvon Martin. At least that’s when I really figured out that the media was not our friend. It’s been a journey ever since.

"Trayvon was a little kid and Zimmerman is white."

That's the most blatant display of race-baiting media coverage I've ever seen.

And then completely radio silence on the obvious witness tampering in the trial. Sickening.
