Mine was a flurry of articles on fluoride, and a personal look into the psychology of manipulative and emotionally abusive relationships. I realized the media uses the same dark triad tactics on us, and surreptitously lies all the time.
What inspired you to seek the truth? What made you no longer wish to bathe in the beautiful lie?
My first wake up call was when I found myself with a day to spare so I decided to find out what Global Warming was all about. I thought it was going to be easy but I soon realised that there were diverging views and I did not know who to trust. I ended up on the website of the British Royal Society. All the scientists statements there were obviously following a party line but some allowed you to read between the lines. You could tell that not everyone was actually buying into the official explanation. It was all downhill from there!
The next big wake up was the 2016 US presidential election. I had no interest in politics before that but then I saw the most powerful nation in the world putting a crook and an idiot on the short list. I investigated both candidates and discovered that one was a much worse crook than I could ever have suspected and that the other was nowhere near as stupid as the MSM kept telling me he was. It was also interesting to see how the MSM's views had changed overnight on the "escalator" day. Even Hillary had said in the past that it was a shame that people like Trump did not run for POTUS!
