For me, the point of my awakening was pre-Q, when an incident known as the so-called "vanishing" of Malaysian Airlines Flight MH-370 occurred. There's just way too much surveillance over our skies for me to believe the BS that was relayed by MSM outlets after that. And after that, it was one rabbit hole after another that led me towards getting the full picture of what was truly up. My only real exposure to "conspiracy theories" prior to this point was the (extremely little) knowledge that the rap community (for e.g. Immortal Technique) were speaking about things such as the Illuminati and 9/11 and Reptilians and all of that stuff, and, like any other normie, I refused to believe it. At that time, I clubbed it all in with "tinfoil hatter nonsense", like how the normies now club anything that sounds unbelievable with "flat earther nonsense" and such. But yes, after that flight disappearance incident, I pretty much woke up full-scale in about less than 6 months or so.
What's your awakening story?
Same. My first son was born in 2008 and I watched Obama destroy this country as I was starting a family. I lost the good job I had as the company downsized and I fought to keep a job for years. I would get hired and then half the plant would get laid off and I was always at the bottom of the ladder. I didn’t have insurance and then I started having to pay for other people to have insurance. I realized how much my vote mattered in 2008. In 2020, I realized it never mattered because it was all rigged. I would say Trump in 2016 was when I realized the Republicans were just as bad as Democrats and they were all in it together. There have been many stages of my awakening, but it all started in 2008 with Obama.
