Late 1980s. Political correctness got rolling.

January 22, 1973. The day SCOTUS legalized genocide. Our country has gone downhill from that date. Abortion kills babies and destroys countries. Remains to be seen - either we turn this country around or the culture of death will engulf us all November 5, 2024 should decide it all. It’s that simple.

I guess I was a lot more naive than most about everything but COVID was when I finally started to sit back and say "people have gone fricking nuts over this".

2016 when DJT a reality tv star and was elected POTUS using fear and grievance as a platform and it worked
"They're gonna put yall back in chains!", came long before that.
Paul Ryan pushing granny off the cliff came before that as well.
Even prior to all of that, there was this...


Basically, you're an ignorant idiot.

When a president was behaving in the Oval Office - sex with an unpaid intern - in a manner that would get any vice principal at any junior high fired for cause, and a national media rallied to his defense.

Same. Working in the hospital during covid opened my eyes to how dishonest the media was.

Clinton. The moral fabric of this country changed for the worse when Clinton was in office.

2016. The outrage with Trump was unlike anything I'd ever seen in an election year until 2020.

When I discovered FDR knew Japan was going to attack Pearl Harbor.
When he declared war on Germany instead of Japan.
When Patton was killed before he could expose them.

Creation of the Federal Reserve, 1913?

Abandonment of the gold standard, 1973?

When Obama was elected. We were not far removed from 9/11 and some how a guy with a Muslim name gets elected president? I would imagine they stole the election then and the 2nd time he was elected, but were caught in 2020. The bigger problem is that the judges and media are bought and paid for, for the most part.


This is a hilariously stupid take. Barack Obama had the glass ceiling “we’d vote for Hitler if he was gay” crowd and McCain was a really weak and boring candidate.

When did you first realize our country had gone off track?

When I was all about the Patriot Act and then just a few months later went, "wait, wtf?", was the beginning.

What furthered my awakening was the Obama years, his second term specifically. But I still wasn't there yet.

Fast forward to 2016 and I skipped voting in the election because I listened to the media about Blumpf and really thought he was just a windbag full of hot air. The following years proved me wrong. Around me and within my personal life, I saw and felt the positive economic things that Trump had done and began rejecting the mainstream media... But still for some reason felt like Faux News was "on my side". So I still wasn't there.

Then came the October, 2020 two-on-one Chrissy Wallace and Biden vs. Trump "debate" and I walked away from Faux News. Soon after, they proved establishment complicity by making "the AZ call" and then disingenuously reporting on J6 and shadow-blacklisting Trump and then completely backing off of any election fraud claims. I cancelled cable/satellite altogether, and began streaming OAN. Just a couple of months after watching Dan Ball, Chanel Iron and Kara McKinney, everything began to really click. What I had seen and heard and experienced but never could completely connect the dots, all fell into place.

I'm still basically a fledgeling in the "awake" spectrum, but at the same time I'm not. I've known what I now know for at least 20 years, but just didn't put it all together until 2021. I see it all very clearly now, the matrix. The truth is terrifying and simultaneously liberating.

No Name being run by the same globalist warmongers as Hussein didn't help matters any.
