What was your biggest redpill from the past year?

[SimpIeJack]

Here's mine:

- Many people, perhaps even the majority of the population, are actually swayed by internet memes. They believe what their electric box tells them because it is funny and it affirms their beliefs. They will indeed overpay for a stock, break the law, vote for politicians, and ignore the advice of medical experts simply because lights on a screen told them to.

[Paul Kreul]

That people actually think “Medical experts” aren’t paid off shills.
Try selling pharmaceuticals for a month & you’ll see just how “noble” the whole industry is lol.

You have got to be kidding with your post.

[elterrible987]

most of the population is more gullible than i could ever imagine

[EagleOfWar]

I don’t agree with the ignoring medical “experts” because tv. I rarely even watch news and I just consider it common sense to want multiple unbiased opinions and testing and, right now we don’t have that. Especially with something new like a vaccine. I’ve had drs tell me they aren’t dare taking the first rounds themselves. No idea if that was what you were referring to. Just my own ok that subject.

[iabs]

the elite can do literally whatever they fuking want and we can not and will not do absolutely nothing.

[roughinhouse]

as you get older, everything becomes more mundane and boring. All of my past hobbies just dont interest me anymore, barely anything does. I remember i used to get so excited as a kid when trying new things or getting a new game, but i feel nothing now.

Its scary how they are getting more open about their corruption cause they know no one will do anything. Epstein and GME highlighted this.

[anonymous]

Epstein got whacked and Trump allowed Barr to cover it up and Comeys daughter to shred the security footage

At that point it should have become very clear to anyone who wasn't a complete retard that there was no one out to help America, but they still hung onto gullible cope

[fishoilmulti]

thast ill never get over her. samantha i still love you.

Tbh it does make sense. These meme pages have a massive audience and can easy promote a certain culture/sway ideas. These pages are pretty much becoming the news channels for a lot of people. I'm sure there are also companies that pay big $ to also promote their products/services through memes without being blatantly obvious it was them all along.

You might need to step out of your comfort zone to get that exciting feeling of something new. During childhood pretty much everything is a new experience and is exciting. As you get older, it becomes repetitive and requires more effort/input to chase something new you haven't experienced.

[SoutheastBeast1]

That there really is nothing to look forward to in life

[Mountaineer92]

ppl will do anything their govt tells them to. even put a swab up their ass

[DSTEE]

That time flies

[dabbmw2002]

You think the electric box has only one message? You're the same simpleton, just on the other side of the coin. Arrogance makes you think otherwise.

[Techriding101]

social engineering has given us all multiple social tags that are linked to our global identity. The 'fellow white people' know.

[Liberal3lite]

There's nothing wrong with hating women. In fact, it's pretty justified.

[markkillerings]

People ARE dumber than you think they are. A lot of them think it's a good thing to only get one side of a story and are more than willing to proactively cukk themselves.

[ErnieMccracken]

Society is a very thin veneer on humanity. We're only a few missed meals away from chaos.

[G0nzo72]

NWO incoming.

[inspectionstare]

Crypto is going to fix nearly everything for humanity.

[dabbmw2002]

Society is a very thin veneer on humanity. We're only a few missed meals away from chaos.

lol

true

[Leonydus]

the **** you learned in school about history is swayed, we got involved in ww1 because the tribe that owns our media wanted some land in Palestine(current day israel). Germany was stabbed in the back, which also led to ww2. now its dam near illegal to talk about because they control everything.

they also lied about weapons of mass destruction sending 1000's more of our countrymen to die like cattle for nothing, no one seems to care

[misheru]

I could write a whole rant about this but I'll try to keep it short. My worldview has really changed in the past year but ts been a long time coming to be honest.

The biggest thing I realized is that most people, and by that I mean the majority of the population, in every country, of all races and sexes etc, are stupid. Yes, stupid. Not gullible or ignorant or uniformed; stupid. Why? Because most people do not have, or never developed, or lost, the ability to think for themselves. They believe whatever someone else tells them depending on their perceived authority or expertise of the individual or organization

This includes people on the left or the right or the center of the political spectrum. It includes people who vouch for capitalism and communism and everything in between. People are stupid. I believe that people who are more intelligent and have the ability to think for themselves, critically, and to not only use the information around them but to seek out the most information possible, tend to seek other people of similar cognitive ability because they find most people to be too stupid to converse with. I think they also tend to be more honest, but quickly learn that being honest and blunt is detrimental in most situations, so eventually they learn (as have I), to keep things to themselves and go with the stupidity of the crowd unless they are conversing with someone who can think. That's why you tend to find these kinds of individuals on forums such as these or other places online - its a place where people who want to converse with others (like me in this gigantic post lol) seek out that conversation. I am by no means a genius, in fact I'm ignorant about a lot of things and there's some stupid things I've done in life. But for fuks sake at least I know how to think. Hope to instill this in my children as well.

Secondly and related to the first point is that most people are too scared to step out of their "comfort zone", in almost every sense. They do whatever keeps them and their mind safe. Most people don't dare to consider possibilities outside of what's declared the norm, because it scares them, even if it is subconciously. Go ahead and try to make someone consider the possibility that the monetary system is rigged, or the political system in the U.S. to the point of election fraud, point out the fact that people around the world get brutally murdered in terrible ways every single day, that slavery still exists, that the organized abduction and sexual assault of children by people with power and money exists in the first world. They will say it's a conspiracy theory. I'm not even talking about the stupid and insane Qanon satanic cult chit. I'm talking about real things that happen every day. Everyone wants to live in their bubble at all costs. This is why there's been very little pushback on covid policies that don't have any logic or common sense, that are unscientific and arbitrary. Things like wearing more than a single mask (what?), like prohibiting the use of dressing rooms, keeping corporate businesses open while shutting small ones, banning travel between countries by air but not by land or sea, etc etc etc. They think that because these rules exist, they must be bulletproof. Because the rules are made by "experts" and the experts can't be wrong. I've been called a bunch of names this entire year for calling out stupidity and told that I need to follow the "Experts" because they are physicians or biologists. Then when I explain that I majored in molecular biology with a minor in virology - they don't know where to turn. Which expert is right? People are the same with laws. If something is a law, it must be correct and it must be virtuous. They don't realize that the people they admire as freedom fighters and founding fathers in the U.S. and abroad are literally criminals. Look at how people react to protests on the left or on the right. Tell someone all firearm laws in the U.S. are unconstitutional - they will call you a loony. Suggest to someone that not even 150 years ago people used to marry in their teens - they will seethe. Or tell them the fact that for the first 2 centuries of it's history, the U.S. operated without income taxes - they'll say you're a freeloader.

Lastly, and most importantly, I learned the truth of what the real political and economic system of the world is, always has been, and likely always will be. It's not communism or capitalism. It's not the "jews" or the "illuminati" or any other complicated fantasy bullchit. Its actually very simple - humanity has always been a feudalistic system. From beginning to end. The sooner you come to understand and accept this, the more you will see everything in the world click. In the ancient world, people were ruled by monarchs (and their courts and staff and sub-despots), or by councils (a group of royalty or lords). Any society you look at had some variance of this system. You have the people who have power - power includes title or position, military influence, wealth of currency or assets, and control of resources. Those with this power, starting from the very top who have a lot of power, progressively to those have little to none, control society and the world. They are, frequently, above law. Above standards. They make the rules. They direct the play. These people have no common race or ethnicity, origin, etc. It can be anyone who has power. And those people in power know who they are and who else have power, and both ally and combat each other for control of that power and operate as a mafia. All governments and political systems and organizations in the world have always been and always will be a mafia. The world is a macro version of the Corleones or the Sinaloa cartel. Some, like the former, more honorable and virtuous, some like the latter evil incarnate. The most likely to be virtuous throughout history has tended to be militaries especially those of republics - true brotherhoods. If you are someone without this power, or with little of it - your best deal in life is to realize the reality of the world, learn the rules and use them to you and your family's advantage, and stay away from the sights of those in power. Play the game. There is no benefit or logic or honor in being fair in any system. Do no harm to others as much as possible, but at the end of the day - we are animals - and animals have no rules.

In summary, most people are stupid, want to keep their narrow safe worldviews at all times because they'd rather not accept reality, believe everything they're told by an authority, and don't realize that the world has always been run and probably always will be run by mafias.

EDIT: Oh and I finally solidified the idea that cops as a profession are (can't talk about individuals) two-faced, conniving cowards. No backbone, no honor. Then again - we already established the world isn't some sort of magical fantasyland of honor.

Definitely agree about the feudalism part

[xbluexhawkx]

people will listen to anything the government/media tells them

[Train57]

everybody is full of chit

ie the liberals who "support" blm are the ones who virtue signal just so they can feel good about themselves and actually do nothing to help black people they actually make it worse as they support the woke culture which is worse for black people

[xbluexhawkx]

also most people are replaceable and you only have a few real friends

[BigTimeOperator]

Blue Pill sheeple are a very authoritarian. They constantly use shaming tactics to try to control your behavior and if that doesn't work, they will try to ridicule you and antagonize you about masks or whatever, but if you get up in their face, they back down. All bark, no bite.

A bigger percentage of the population than I ever realized are like this.

[Sinergy2010]

the elite can do literally whatever they fuking want and we can not and will not do absolutely nothing.

MOFING truth.. ANYTHING
