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?
Exact time I can remember like it just happened.
1990 SOTU from Bush senior in his thousand points of light speech when he put forth the New World Order right there on TV before God and everyone.
Before that I had heard "crazies" talking about it and blew it off. But that speech, specifically that point, hit me like a bolt of lightning. "No fucking way", I muttered slack jaded.
From then until now, I've been a rabid truth seeker an OH MY LAWD the things I've come to know. Mind blowing.
