I grew up constantly finding out adults were lying, scamming and breaking promises as well as beatings and verbal abuse so let's just say my ability to question what I was being told started early.
But, hearing one of my relatives talking about Pearl Harbor set up I took with a grain of salt since he was a bit sketchy himself.
I never really distrusted the news I read in the papers or watched on TV but more and more, I began to wonder about the government and how things just kept getting worse and worse for our country. How could our government be so oppressive and stupid.
One of my first big things happened in 2008 when Obama was elected. I looked him up before the election and realized he was a dishonest guy. How bad things were going to be like what's going on today, I would never have believed you back then but I was well on my way to being made a believer.
9/11 though made me distrust the media so it was much easier to see through the Obama administration.
By the time Obama became president I was so sick of TV propaganda I just sort of quit watching unless I was at a friend's house. By 2012 I was getting all my news online and comparing various media sites to try and understand the news.
With Trump I was actually rooting for Cruz and didn't much like Trump but when Cruz conceded I decided I would just sit this election out like all the rest. I'd never voted before.
However, when Hillary sent out teams of agents to stir up protests and attack Trump supporters at the San Diego convention I knew I was going to vote for Trump.
So lots of mini red pills. Although Pearl Harbor is a decent one.
Yep, lots of little awakenings growing up. Like the day Grandma drove me into town to sit on Santa Claus lap and seeing he had a fake beard on. What a bummer. Still got the bag of peanuts, an orange and some candies.
I'm just hoping Trump sees this shit through and USA has freedom for the first time in my life time.
