My first awakening was in 2015 when I discovered Thomas Sowell. When Trump won and the media started to attack him.
It was the first time in my life I started to think the Media was bullshit. I'll admit... I was a Democrat pre 2016.
I still don't remember what lead me to find X22Report. After listening to Dave for a few months.
I was full on red pilled and never going back.
Still wishing I could get my brother to wake up!
As a registered nurse (since 1977), I started realizing the parroting media when they were hyping H1N1 and pts were coming in droves to get their H1N1 vaccines- it was insane. Then I noticed the hype over Zika and remembered the hype with lead testing in children (I fell for that one when my kids were little- and they never ate lead paint! ha!). I finally stopped listening/trusting media. Then I laughed at the fawning over Obama's "physique" (and laughed at the video of him holding little weights and doing step-ups.) The fawning over ugly Big Mike (and then seeing the picture of "her" deplaning in that godawful low-rent shorts outfit. And all those sweaters! Ha!) The cover-up over Barry's birth certificate, after I had watched the excellent presentation showing why it was fake. I was already awake by the time covid came around but I have to bring that into this because I literally thought I was going to go insane- it was breathtaking at how many medical truths were just thrown out the window by supposedly knowledgable medical people, including my intelligent veterinarian brother (wearing masks and getting the vaccine!) I remember sitting in front of Publix waiting for it to open so I could get some TP and watching all of the people arriving wearing their masks and standing apart from each other. I had serious depression from the dissonance of it all. The lies! Sorry for rambling....
We refer to those who masked as "maskholes". It's good for a chuckle.
