Can’t wait to vote Trump and a full republican ticket in November. I started my red pill journey at the end of 2019. A friend sent me a Fleccas video of him talking to Trump protestors and my lib brain hated him with everything it could because he was so nice but just on the “wrong” side of things. I “knew” he was lying and just trying to be manipulative. I told my friend he was an asshole for sending me the video and that he was just interviewing crazies. It stuck with me though, I began to think about all the boogie men/women who speak from right wing talking points that I had been told were bigoted racist and misogynistic. I thought hey if these people really are as bad as they say then I should be able listen to them speak and call out their “racist/bigoted” agendas so I could be a more “informed” lib. I was blown away by how reasonable these people were and how they spoke with respect towards their opponents with different views. Provided those opponents treated them with respect as well. I started to see how much they cared for people and their fellow Americans and that it wasn’t a movement of hate. I basically started watching everything I could and going back and looking at past events where the media had painted Trump supporters or conservatives as racist/misogynistic non humans and seeing how ass backwards I had it because of the media spins. The Covington kid, and “good people on both sides” blew up my mind. I hated that kid and Trump for not condemning white supremacists. I could go on but I’m typing this on a phone and it’s painfully slow.

Ps I used to hate r/the_donald so much when I was stuck in the echo chamber that is reddit and never understood why you guys called yourself ‘pedes’.

PPS thank you to my two friends for sharing info with me whenever I asked and not trying to force feed me. And massive shoutout to Fleccas the nicest dude on YouTube.

Loved reading this, I find it really heartwarming when people can recognize the positivity that they may have been missing from us and decide to embrace it. We really are like one big family, building up and protecting each other while also being a light for others to come to. Welcome to the family!
