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.
We welcome you with open arms. I was redpilled in 2016 when Hillary stole the nomination from Bernie. I was a fukin Bernie bro. I saw him speak in Seattle Aug 2015. I cried in the stands. Ashamed to admit that now. We all get redpilled one way or another. I still hold out hope for my family. Glad you saw the light. Life has meaning after you get redpilled. You realize that a Victor vs victim mentality is crucial for success.
Thanks for sharing that, I’ll go pound for pound with you. I was a Bernie bro too and couldn’t believe that she stole the election from him either. At the time I thought they must have known better than I but was very bitter. I blindly voted for her out of hatred for god emperor Trump. I believed the party was still good, it wasn’t until I saw the writing on the wall again with Bernie running for the dnc nomination and realized that it was the exact same sh*t from years prior and it was going to be a massive let down. Not to mention how much of a shill Bernie has become. All my friends were so excited to vote for Bernie and were so excited when he won California’s primary votes. I knew they were only getting ready for a massive let down when the DNC eventually chose their establishment Dem candidate again. I kind of felt bad for how naive they were to not see the writing on the wall. Also to your last comment, I agree completely. I was in a really shitty place mentally and felt like a loser. Going through this change has made me take a deeper look at myself. I’m learning more about self accountability and sacrificing childish things in the now for a better future. I was a hopeless video game addict that was in an unhealthy relationship with someone that didn’t respect me because I didn’t respect myself. Went a little further than I wanted personally but it’s nice to share. Thanks again!
